Organ Transplantation Center
Organ transplantation is an operation that replaces the affected organ of a terminally ill patient with a healthy organ of a brain-dead or a living person.
Transplantation is performed on a patient who cannot be treated with conventional therapies due to intractable diseases. Transplantation of organs including the solid organs such as the kidney, liver, pancreas, heart, and lungs as well as the tissues such as the cornea, bone marrow, bones, blood vessels, cartilage, amnions, fasciae, and heart valves is possible.
Since its opening in 1991, Organ Transplantation Center has been a pioneer in the field of organ transplantation. The center has performed Korea’s first successful heart, pancreas, and living donor liver transplantations. Notably, it has recorded the largest number of organ transplantation surgeries in Korea and the largest number of living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) cases in the world. For these reasons, the center has achieved higher success rates than any other major international facility.
