Its only a matter of time that we will be able to replace not only organs such as the Liver, but other body parts. My hope is to be able to replace this titanium implant that had replaced my femure years ago. It would be interesting to re-grow a new femure. A short mention about how this is being perfected can be read in the Natural Geographic March 2011. talks about how we are starting to use our own cells to grow Livers and other organs-called "bioartificial"
