In the case of corneal transplants, tissue typing is not needed because cornea do not have their own blood supply. This greatly reduces the chance that immune cells will come in contact with the cornea and recognize it as foreign.

because your zubi will not accept the new organ
Tissue typing is done to match organ or bone marrow donors with recipients to minimize the risk of rejection. It involves analyzing specific proteins on the surface of cells to find the best match for a successful transplant.
Tissue typing involves checking that the organ destined for transplant has the same tissue type as the patient that is due to receive the organ requires. Tissue typing is usually only done on kidney transplants - other organs only require matching bloodtype and size.
CPT code 89255 refers to the laboratory procedure for the isolation of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing from blood or tissue. This code is specifically used for the serological typing of HLA class I and class II antigens, which are crucial for transplant compatibility testing and immunological studies. It is important for matching organ donors with recipients to reduce the risk of transplant rejection.
ABO and Rh typing must be performed, followed by MHC typing. Following surgery, she must receive immunosuppressive therapy to keep her body from rejecting the new liver as foreign tissue.

Tissue typing results for both donors and recipients and antibody screen results for recipients are submitted to the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) database.
