Following decades of animal testing and clinical trials, several successful pregnancies have been carried to term. Yet UTx is still to be considered as an experimental procedure. The report's authors believe UTx has the potential to become a mainstream surgical practice, but for the time being, several ethical issues need to be weighed in before it does.
