Transplants in Ontario Year-to-Date

Here are the total transplants performed in the Province of Ontario this year to date followed by waiting list totals, as posted on the Trillium Gift of Life Network (TGLN) web site. Check this site often as figures are updated daily.

At the Trillium site you will find more statistics and you can also compare this year's transplants to the 10-year history and get an idea of how we're doing. For example, for all of 2005 there were 68 lung and heart-lung transplants performed (in 2007 this was equalled by Aug. 22nd) and by comparison that total was well surpassed in 2006 with 87 lung and heart-lung transplants done in Ontario (this was equalled by Oct. 30th in 2007).
