surgically move an organ or tissue
to do an operation in which a doctor takes an organ or tissue from one body and puts it into another body
Vzorec užití:
to transplant [organ/tissue] into [someone/something]
Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse "transplant" with "transport" or "transfer". "Transplant" is used for living organs or tissues (and sometimes plants), not for moving general objects. Also, say "transplant a heart into a patient", not "transplant a heart to a patient" in medical English.
Synonyma
graft (A more technical medical term, often used especially for skin or small pieces of tissue rather than whole organs.)
|
implant (Emphasizes putting something into the body, often an artificial device, not always taken from another body.)
Antonyma
remove (Describes taking an organ or tissue out of the body without putting another one in its place.)

organ or tissue that was moved
an organ or tissue that has been taken from one body and put into another body
Vzorec užití:
the transplant [verb]

Learners may confuse this with the operation itself. "Transplant" here is the organ or tissue, while the "transplant" operation is the surgery. Context and verbs like "reject" or "accept" usually show it is the organ.
Synonyma
graft (A technical term often used for transplanted tissue; common in medical contexts.)
Antonyma
native organ (Refers to the organ someone is born with, as opposed to one that has been transplanted.)

Synonyma
replant (Very close in meaning, but "replant" is slightly more general and not always about moving an established plant.)
|
move (A more general verb; does not specifically mean taking a plant and putting it in the ground again.)
