Source: OPTN/SRTR Data as of May 1, 2008.

(+) = Values not determined due to insufficient follow-up.

Multi-organ transplants are excluded for kidney, pancreas, heart, lung, and liver survival rates.

Intestine survival includes intestine only and intestine with liver and/or pancreas transplants.

Living donor transplants excluded unless explicitly listed. Heterotopic heart and liver transplants excluded.

Patient survival follows patients from first transplant of this type until death. Graft survival follows individual transplants until graft failure. Counts for patient and graft survival are different because a patient may have more than one transplant for a type organ.

See Technical Notes for complete discussion of patient and graft survival methods. See Technical Notes for details of patient and graft survival methods.
