Abstract
The World Congress of Transplantation was held on 26.07-31.07.2014 in San Francisco (USA). There were presented 3090 reports, among them 2073 (70 %) were in clinical transplantation, including renal transplantation – 1,089 reports, liver transplantation – 495, heart transplantation – 71, lungs transplantation – 35, and pancreas transplantation – 11. An overall increase in transplant activity was observed, especially significant in a number of African countries (Tunisia, Sudan, and Nigeria), Thailand, Qatar, Iran, Brazil and a significant improvement in the results of transplantation, promoting longevity of transplant recipients with good quality of life. As one of many examples can be childbirth in women with a heart transplanted in early childhood.
