Yet another medical frontier has been crossed, and the concept of us being able to grow new organs has now become a reality. Surgeons have used stem cells to grow replacement body parts in a new and fantastic innovation. The success of the transplant of a windpipe grown from stem cells has opened up several new doors, and soon we may be able to regenerate damaged body parts as opposed to having full transplants.

On recent years, there have been several breakthroughs in regenerative medicine, and several more in the pipelines. Scientists in Britain enabled a blind man to see again through injecting his eye with normal versions of the defective gene. Scientists in America have succeeded in growing parts of the bladder which have been implanted in several patients. Researchers are working on various techniques to re-grow skin and other parts of the body, in an exciting and unparalleled project. These amazing ideas will help thousands of people all over the world and will put an end to the need of donors.
