Tainted and Infected Tissue

If you have been the recipient of a tissue transplant, you assume that the tissue has been checked and cleared and is, therefore, not tainted and infected. You put your faith in the medical professionals assisting you, and you hope for the best outcome possible.

Unfortunately, sometimes the worst happens, especially when tainted and infected tissue is used by the surgeon during the transplant.

It's a horrible thought that tainted and infected tissue might be on the market. After all, we're living in the 21st century, in the age of technology and information. How could tainted and infected tissue be available?

Ironically, the human need for greed sometimes raises its head. Corners are cut and procedures are not fully performed. Tainted and infected tissues may be used for donations of eyes, muscles, and skin, unbeknownst to the physician performing the surgery and the patient receiving the tainted and infected tissue. It's only after the surgery that complications rear their heads.

Sometimes, a patient is diagnosed with a disease, such as HIV/AIDS or hepatitis, that he or she did not have in his or her preoperative days. After a medical inspection or investigation, it is discovered that tainted and infected tissue was used during the consumer's medical procedure, thus resulting in contractingf a potentially fatal disease.

Other adverse side effects to being given tainted and infected tissue may include blood problems, heart problems, and, of course, long and painful hospital stays.

Though most tissue used during operations is "clean", there are many "tissue brokers" who sell tainted and infected tissue to hospitals. Though the hospitals may not be aware that they are using tainted and infected tissue, they are could be just as responsible as the "tissue brokers" for ensuring the safety of the patient.
