Key Words Green transplantation; Sustainability; Environmental impact; Carbon footprint; Review
Core Tip Green transplantation focuses on the concept of integrating sustainable practices throughout every stage of the procedure. To ensure that transplantation remains relevant in the future, it must align with eco-friendly practices that aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while maintaining a high standard of patient care. This topic is not well-documented, and here, we attempt to assemble the relevant literature and offer suggestions on how to achieve this ambitious yet necessary goal.
