We present a review in the different capacities and features of Cadaver Stem Cells (CSCs). CSCs could be an innovative and interesting option in the near future for Regenerative Medicine and Transplantation procedures. This provocative topic has not been fully addressed before. The isolation of viable and functional CSCs from humans up to many days post mortem is possible today. There is a real chance to obtain culture and expand viable stem cells for cell therapy from the plentiful source of cadaver donors. Therefore, it seems that it will be possible to routinely obtain CSCs from almost any human cadaver organ or tissue as desired. This could open a new universe of strategies and research in order to find out their real potential as a routine therapeutic procedure for many diseases.
