Transplant Center Guide: LIVING DONOR LIVER - 2001 Data

 

Below is a list of approved liver transplant programs, listed from most active to least active, that perform living-donor liver transplants. While living-donor liver transplants from adults to children have taken place for more than a decade, adult-to-adult liver tranplants are a relatively recent and medically more challenging phenomenon -- and the U.S. government has only released statistics on the number of these performed, by transplant center, for 2000 and 2001.

As you will note from the data below, only a handful of transplant centers -- clustered to a great extent in New York, California and the Boston area -- account for the overwhelming majority of the living-donor liver transplant surgeries that take place in the United States.

Keep in mind the possibility that programs may have started, expanded or contracted significantly since this data was compiled.
