Autotransplantation refers to the process of transferring tissue or organ from one part of the body to another. Synonyms for the term include autografting, autotransplant, and self-transplantation. Autografting is commonly used in dental procedures where a tooth is removed from one site in the mouth and transplanted to another location, such as the jawbone. Autotransplant and self-transplantation are more general terms that can refer to any type of tissue or organ transfer within the same individual. These terms are often used in medical research, particularly in studies of transplantation techniques and outcomes.
