The sale of body parts is totally unregulated !
Cadaver parts are needed for medical students to practice on, and to study experimental surgery.
There is big money involved in securing specific body parts.
An article from 2012 at :

RTI supplies medical tissue internationally; and the sources are those who volunteer their bodies for research (but few know that the bodies are being bought and sold for profit).
"And medical products multinationals like RTI? They do well, too. Last year RTI earned $11.6 million in pretax profits on revenues of $169 million"
"The FDA, which declined repeated requests for on-record interviews, has no authority over health care facilities that implant the material.
And the agency doesnt specifically track infections"
