text: The word neo-organ comes from the Greek word "neos," which means new. Organ transplants have been successfully used for medical purposes since 1954. The difficulty with the traditional process of organ transplants is that it requires waiting for a viable donor to donate an organ. The process of matching the organ to make sure it is compatible with the patient has also proven to be challenging. There are two main challenges: finding the right candidate for the patient and avoiding the patient rejecting the organ even if it is a match. Neo-organs can be used to avoid the process of organ matching and donating.
