  1. eye and kidney


  2. Did u mean organ ---- Liver and Heart

  3. Are we talking about only organ transplantation (like kidney, liver, heart, etc) or tissue transplantation (cornea, heart valves, bone, etc) as well?

    Kidney is by far the most commonly transplanted organ, followed by liver, heart, lung then kidney-pancreas (combined).  For example, for 2007, the numbers in the United States are:

    - kidney: 16,625

    - liver: 6,494

    - heart: 2,210

    - lung: 1,469

    - kidney-pancreas combined: 862
