Autotransplantation:
It is the process of transplantation of tissues, proteins, and organs from one part of the body of the same person to another part. The transplantation of autologous tissue (tissue of a person grafted from another place in the body) by this procedure is also called an autograft. This is commonly used in blood donation, bone grafting, kidney transplantations, bone and tissue transplantations, teeth and root transplantations, skin grafts, cardiac autotransplantation, parathyroid autotransplantation, and islet cell autotransplantation ( in the pancreas).
