Exploring the Ethics of Clinical Xenotransplantation

This book provides a comprehensive examination of the ethics of xenotransplantation.
Due to the global shortage of organs for transplantation, there is increasing interest in cross-species transplantation, or xenotransplantation, among researchers and clinicians. Proponents of xenotransplantation envision a future in which transplantable organs can be safely and efficiently grown in genetically modified pigs. This book provides an overview of the major ethical issues involved in xenotransplantation. Xenotransplantation touches on almost every area of bioethics: animal research, public health, patient selection, allocation, global justice, pediatric research, and informed consent. Each chapter provides a nuanced overview of the positions that have been offered on a specific topic and the authors seek to provide a way forward.
Exploring the Ethics of Clinical Xenotransplantation is an essential resource for researchers, students, and clinicians working in bioethics, medical ethics, animal ethics, and public health policy.
