Abstract
Over the past 35 years clinical transplantation has exploded from its tentative and experimental beginnings to become a major clinical discipline. Renal transplantation has become the treatment of choice for most causes of end-stage renal failure; cardiac and liver transplantation the preferred treatment for certain end-stage diseases of these organs; and bone marrow transplantation the favoured approach in the management of acute leukaemia in remission. Furthermore, the early results of combined heart and lung transplantation in conditions such as cystic fibrosis, and of transplantation of the endocrine pancreas to arrest the vascular complications of insulin dependent diabetics, are encouraging.
