Abstract:
1. A tissue transplantation method for extracting tissue from a first site of a body and implanting the extracted tissue into a second site of the body, comprising the steps of: opening the skin of the body at the first site of the body, inserting an extraction tube into the opening of the skin; thereafter, cutting off the tissue to be extracted at an entrance end of the extraction tube with a cutting member or avulsion member while the extraction tube is present in the body; subsequently, removing the extraction tube with the tissue present inside; thereafter, placing a penetration rod having a blunt penetration tip in an implantation tube; subsequently, making a cavity in the body at a second site with the combination of the penetration rod and a first end of the implantation tube; thereafter, removing the penetration rod from the implantation tube; thereafter, inserting the extracted tissue to be implanted into a second end of the implantation tube, which tube is disposed in and maintains the made cavity; and as a last step, removing the implantation tube from the cavity, leaving the tissue to be implanted in the cavity of the body.
