Kunstigt organ

Et kunstigt organ er en menneskeskabt mekanisk eller -vævs teknologi, som er implanteret eller integreret i et menneske – eller med levende væv - for at erstatte et naturligt organ, for at kopiere eller forstærke bestemte funktioner.^[1] Den udskiftede funktion behøver ikke at være livsnødvendig, men det er den ofte. For eksempel kan udskiftning af knogle og led, såsom dem, der findes i hofteudskiftninger. De betragtes også som kunstige organer. ^[2]
