The District Tissue Bank (BDT) is a Latin American reference in the selection of donors, rescue, processing, preservation, storage and distribution of human tissues for implant purposes.<\/span><\/h3>\n

We are the first bank in Latin America with development and standardization in acellular dermis to favor definitive skin regeneration in burn patients.

There is currently a list of more than 1,000 people in Bogot\u00e1 waiting for a cornea transplant. Patients who have suffered severe burns are waiting for skin and amniotic membrane transplants for their recovery.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Circumstances in which
\ntissue is donated<\/span><\/h2>\n

\n<\/div>

<\/div>
<\/p>\n

Anatomical components can be obtained from living or deceased donors.<\/span><\/h3>\n

In the case of living donors, appropriate conditions must be guaranteed to minimize as much as possible the risks assumed by the person who wishes to voluntarily donate tissue, following the legal and medical requirements already established.<\/span><\/h3>\n

In terms of tissues, corneas, skin, bones, bone marrow, blood vessels, heart valves, cartilage, tendons, sclera and amniotic membrane can be transplanted.<\/span><\/h3>\n
