The human organs trafficking is on the rise in the east-European countries, including Macedonia, says the latest report of the American Medical Association.

Macedonia, Russia, Romania, Bosnia, Albania, Kosovo and other east European countries.
A practice of traveling to east Europe for so-called "transplant tourism" has functioning for a while now, the American Medical Association said.
