- Cadaveric bone donations are still slow-paced in Tamil Nadu.
- While people’s overall understanding of cadaveric organ donations has largely improved, this is not the case with bone donation.
- There were 248 bone donations from 2018 to 2023.
- Major bone banks have only received a small number of donations over this period.
- The bone bank at Cancer Institute (WIA), Adyar was set up in 2019.
- Every year, Coimbatore Ganga Hospital’s bone bank receives fewer than 25 cadaveric bone donations.
