THE HISTORY OF THE HISTORY OF TRANSPLANTATION AS TRANSPLANTATION AS
DEPICTED IN ARTDEPICTED IN ART• The possibility to transplant limbs and organs predates the modern technology of organ transplantation. • The legend of the “Miracle of the Black Leg” describes two surgeon brothers, who lived during the 3rd century in Asia Minor.• The legend relates their miraculous removal of the diseased leg of a Caucasian Roman named Justinian and its replacement with the leg of a recently deceased black African. The Miracle of Cosmas & Damian

Annual Report of the OPTN and SRTR Trends in K and P Transplants
1998 to 2007• The number of patients awaiting transplantation increased
from 40,825 to 76,070 (86%) between 1998 and 2007, reflecting an increase in the number of patients listed “inactive status”. Active patients increased by 4,510 between 2002 and 2007, from 44,263 to 48,773.
• There were 6,037 living donor and 10,082 deceased donor kidney transplants in 2007. Patient and allograft survival was best for recipients of living donor kidneys, least for expanded criteria donor (ECD) deceased donor kidneys, and intermediate for non-ECD kidneys.
• The total number of pancreas transplants peaked at 1,484 in 2004 and has since declined to 1,331. Among pancreas recipients, those with simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) transplants experienced the best pancreas graft survival rates: 86% at one year and 53% at 10 years.
SRTR
Liver and Intestine Transplantation In the United States, 1998-2007
• Liver transplantation numbers in the United States remained constant from 2004-2007, while the number of waiting list candidates has trended down.
• In 2007, the waiting list was its smallest since 1999, with adults ≥50 years representing the majority of candidates. Most age groups had decreased waiting list death rates, however, children <1 year had the highest death rate.
• Non-cholestatic cirrhosis was most commonly diagnosed. Hepatocellular carcinoma exceptions increased slightly.
SRTR
Liver and Intestine Transplantation In the United States, 1998-2007
• Use of liver allografts from donation after cardiac death donors increased in 2007.
• Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD)/Pediatric Model for End-stage Liver Disease (PELD) scores <15 accounting for 75% of the waiting list.
• Over the same period, the number of transplants for MELD/PELD <15 decreased from 16.4% to 9.8%.
• The intestine transplantation waiting list decreased from 2006, with the majority of candidates being children <5 years old.
• Death rates remain at about 14 % . Policy changes have been implemented to improve allocation and recovery of intestine grafts to positively impact mortality
SRTR
Heart Transplantation in the U.S., 1998-2007
• The number of candidates actively awaiting heart transplantation has declined steadily, from 2,525 in 1998 to 1,408 in 2007, a 44% decrease.
• Despite this decline, a larger proportion of patients
are listed as either Status 1A or 1B, likely secondary to increased use of mechanical circulatory support.
SRTR
Heart Transplantation in the U.S., 1998-2007 • The overall death rate among patients awaiting heart
transplantation fell from 220 to 142 patients per 1,000 patient-years at risk.
• Likely reflects better medical and surgical options for those with end-stage heart failure.
• This trend was noted across all racial groups, both sexes, all disease etiologies (re-transplantation excepted), and all status groups.
SRTR
Heart Transplantation in the U.S., 1998-2007 • Recipient numbers were relatively stable over the past
decade. In 2007, 2,207 transplants were performed, although the proportion of patients transplanted as Status 1A shifted from 34% to 50%. A trend toward transplanting more patients above 65 years of age was seen.
• Adjusted patient (and graft) survival at three months, one, five, and 10 years after transplantation has gradually, but significantly, improved during the same period.
• Current patient survival estimates are 93%, 88%, 74%, and 55%, respectively (for 3m, 1yr, 5 yr, 10 y).
SRTR
Lung Transplantation in the United States,1998-2007
• The most significant change in lung transplantation over the last decade was implementation of the Lung Allocation Score (LAS) allocation system in May 2005.
• Subsequently, the number of active wait-listed lung candidates declined 54% from pre-LAS (2004) levels to the end of 2007. There was also a reduction in median waiting time, from 792 days in 2004 to 141 days in 2007.
• The number of lung transplants performed yearly increased
through the decade to a peak of 1,465 in 2007; the greatest single year increase occurred in 2005.
SRTR
Lung Transplantation in the United States,1998-2007
• Despite higher LAS scores being transplanted in the LAS era, recipient death rates have remained relatively stable since 2003, and better than in previous years.
• Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) became the most common diagnosis group to receive a lung transplant in 2007. Emphysema was the most common diagnosis in years prior.
• The number of re-transplants and transplants in those >65yrs have increased significantly since 1998, up 295% and 643%, respectively.
• A decreasing percentage of lung transplant recipients are children (3.5% in 2007, n=51).

Review of topics in transplantation
• Machine Perfusion or Cold Storage in Deceased-Donor Kidney Transplantation(NEJM 360:7,2009) : randomized, controlled trial showed machine perfusion associated with a reduced risk of delayed graft function and improved graft survival in the first year post transplant (94 % vs 90 %)
SRTR
Review of topics in transplantation
• Outcomes and Utilization of Kidneys from Deceased Donors with Acute Kidney Injury (AJT 2009:9):The relative risk of graft loss was similar for recipients of SCD kidneys with sCr of 1.6–2.0 and >2.0 mg/dL, compared to ≤1.5 mg/dL. For ECD recipients, the relative risk of graft failure significantly increased with increasing sCr
• Calculating Life Years from Transplant (LYFT): Methods for Kidney and Kidney-Pancreas Candidates (AJT 2008:8:997) :Prioritizing candidates with higher LYFT scores for each available kidney could substantially increase total years of life among both transplant candidates and recipients

CONCLUSIONS:
• TRANSPLANTATION SAVES LIFES, IMPROVES THE QUALITY OF LIFE
• ALLOGRAFT AND PATIENT SURVIVALS HAVE IMPROVED
• MORE DONORS ARE NEEDED
