Historical NoteReturn to Top

On October 9, 1959, the University of Oregon Medical School (forerunner of our modern OHSU) made history by performing the world's 18th successful kidney transplant.

Since its inception, the OHSU Transplant Program has expanded to include heart, liver, pancreas, and lungs. The team transplants more than 200 organs a year. Over the years, thousands of people with life-limiting disease have been saved thanks to organ transplantation at OHSU. And along the way, the transplant team has actively contributed to new transplant technologies, including: surgical techniques, organ retrieval and preservation, donor and recipient matching, recipient preparation, chronic immunosuppression regimens, and prevention and treatment of complications.
