    GlossaryAutografts

    tissue transplants from one part of a person's body to another

    Autografts, also known as autologous grafts or self-grafts, are tissue transplants taken from one part of a person's body and transplanted to another part of the same person's body. This technique is commonly used in procedures like skin grafts for burn victims or hair transplants for individuals experiencing hair loss, as it eliminates the risk of immune rejection since the tissue is the patient's own.
