Liver Transplant

Liver Transplant Volumes and Statistics for Mayo Clinic in Minnesota

Mayo Clinic's results with liver transplantation are among the best in the world. The results of a transplant program can be measured in many ways; the most common comparative numbers include:

  • The number of transplants performed.
  • The percentage of transplant recipients who are alive at specific time points after surgery (patient survival).
  • The percentage of functioning livers after transplant at specific time points after surgery (graft survival).

Volumes

Mayo Clinic in Rochester has performed more than 1,805 transplants since 1985 (when the program began). Transplants for adults generally take place at Rochester Methodist Hospital, while transplants for children always take place at Saint Marys Hospital. Both hospitals are part of Mayo Clinic.
