Abstract

As the results of organ transplantation show steady improvement, we have seen a marked increase in the number of potential organ recipients. During this time however, the number of donor organs becoming available has remained little changed. The reasons for this phenomenon and some potential solutions for improving the supply of donor organs are reviewed.
