Alternate Timelines

Scenarios about 'transplantation'

The surgical procedure of transferring tissues or organs from one part of the body to another, or from one individual to another. Transplantation represents a major milestone in medical history, evolving from experimental procedures to routine treatments for organ failure, with significant breakthroughs occurring in the mid-20th century with the development of immunosuppressive drugs. In alternate history scenarios, different timelines of transplantation development can dramatically alter healthcare outcomes, population demographics, and ethical frameworks surrounding medical technology.
