Autologous Tissue Transfer

Autologous tissue transfer is a medical procedure where a person's own healthy tissue is moved from one part of their body to another. This is often done to reconstruct or repair an area that has been damaged by injury, disease, or surgery. Because it uses the patient's own tissue, there's a lower risk of rejection compared to using donor tissue.
