If a xenotransplant was done for a human how can you be sure that the organ put into the human will grow properly with the human?
Within transplantation surgery, there is nothing to be "sure" about, even when working with allograft transplants. With xenograft transplants (which are exceptionally rarely performed), risks are much higher and there are additional risks which do not occur with allograft transplants. In either case, there is no way to be "sure" of a good outcome, due to the many known and unknown random variables which affect outcomes.
What is an allographt?
An allograft is a surgical procedure that transplants cells, tissues, or whole organs from one individual to another of the SAME species. The caveat is that the individuals must be genetically distinct. This distinguishes an allograft from a syngeneic isograft in which the individuals are genetically identical (i.e. monozygotic twins or cloned mice). A xenograft is between individuals of different species and an autograft is a transplant within the same individual (i.e. skin grafts for burn victims).
