“…At present, China has initially established a fair, just, sunny and transparent national organ donation and transplant system which was called ‘Chinese Mode’ by World Health Organization (WHO) under the leadership of the National Health Commission of the People's Republic of China and the Red Cross Society of China . While as for living donors, China's past family planning policies make it difficult to find well‐matched donors from siblings, rather, data in kidney transplantation shows that mothers are more common to be the donors in China .…”

Uterus transplantation (UTx) is an emerging surgical treatment for patients with absolute uterine factor infertility. However, the initial low surgical success of human UTx from the teams worldwide has revealed the difficulty of the surgery and called for preparatory team training in large animals. Also, the team who carried out the human UTx without previous systematic research in large animals or deceased donors encountered transplant failures, which was controversial and even deprived them of further trials. Various UTx studies in large animals, including dogs, pigs, sheep and macaques have been performed in China from different teams, compared to other countries around the world. However, among over 70 UTx that have been carried out worldwide, only three were carried out in China, with one live baby achieved. In this paper, we explore the possible challenges for human UTx in China. We conclude that it is critical to learn the lessons from the international team and adopt the international ethic views regarding UTx on humans. Also, it would be positive for the Chinese groups to establishing an academic society for UTx with regular meetings, which will raise public awareness of UTx, and guide the proper development of human UTx in China.

“…In 2017, 5,135 cases of organ donations from cadaveric donors were achieved, and 16,000 organ transplant were conducted, which increased by about 20% compared to that of 2016 (30). Jeremy Chapman, the former president of the Transplantation Society, said there has been a substantial change in China which has been going in the right direction (31). Now, organ transplant programs in China strictly follow the international ethics guidelines, that is, safeguarding donors' rights and interests, and ensuring transparent and equitable organ donation and allocation of voluntary and free of payment donations (31).…”

“…Regular academic meetings will promote mutual learning, raise public awareness of UTx, and allow exchange of the latest developments on UTx at the international level. The first case worldwide of live birth following UTx from a deceased donor in Brazil is inspiring [43], and recent conference data shows that more than 600,000 people have registered to become volunteer organ donors in China, with nearly 20,000 having donated organs [44]. Thus, the UTx groups can work with the China Organ Transplant Response System (COTRS) and Red Cross office to address the ethics of uterine transplants.…”

Uterus transplantation (UTx) is now a possible approach for women with absolute uterine factor infertility to deliver a child, following the first successful delivery by Brännström et al. in Sweden in September 2014. This remarkable achievement attracted major attention worldwide and caused many countries to prepare for UTx, including countries in Asia. To date, three groups have performed UTx in humans in Asia, and many others are aiming for the clinical application of UTx with accumulation of basic experimental data. Therefore, it is likely that UTx will expand rapidly in Asia in the near future, although this will depend on ethical, social and religious views in each country. With this background, herein we summarize the current progress of UTx in East, Southeast and South Asia, with the purpose of increasing understanding of the current status of basic and clinical UTx research in each country and sharing progress and knowledge to ensure future development of UTx research in Asia.
