Abstract
The shortage of organ donors presents a critical challenge in modern healthcare, with demand for organ transplants far outstripping supply. 3D bioprinting, a transformative innovation leveraging biological materials and cells to create tissues and organs, offers a promising solution. This review examines the evolution of 3D bioprinting from early tissue engineering methods to its current role in regenerative medicine and organ transplant applications. It discussed key bioprinting techniques, bio-inks, and scaffold materials that support tissue growth, as well as the technical challenges and ethical considerations faced by researchers. With potential applications ranging from cartilage and skin grafts to fully functional organs, 3D bioprinting stands at the forefront of a new era in organ transplantation. However, barriers such as vascularization, biocompatibility, and regulatory hurdles remain before this technology can be fully integrated into clinical practice. Keywords: 3D bioprinting, organ transplantation, bioink, regenerative medicine, tissue engineering.
