Human Tissue Recall

You’ve heard about spinach and toys and cars being recalled but human tissue? Every year there are approximately one and a half million new surgical procedures known as allografts. An allograft is surgical transfers of bone, skin, tendons, teeth in which tissues from cadavers are transplanted into patients.

Recently, the New Jersey tissue company known as Biomedical Tissue Services was criminally indicted for illegally harvesting human tissue from corpses. As a result, patients (victims) throughout the country have received recall notices from the FDA and/or their medical providers informing them that they may have received illegally harvested body parts as tissue transplants that misrepresented the age/health of the donor and did not test for disease.
