As of my knowledge cutoff in 2023, the most recently discovered potential organ in the human body is called the "interstitium." The interstitium hit the headlines in 2018 when researchers proposed that this network of fluid-filled compartments found throughout the tissue could be classified as an organ. It was traditionally thought to be dense connective tissue, but newer imaging techniques suggested that this area might have more specialized functions, especially in the field of fluid transport, immune system functioning, and disease pathology.
