This is not only a morally ambiguous sci-fi, it also skips on issue that we have no 100% proof way to make sure the blood used in the procedures you proposed will not contain cancer cells that will then invade the transplanted organ.
Not to mention issue of patient being weakened by, say, organ failure, to even survive such procedure.
