Current Data on Organ Donation and Transplantation in Poland: Poltransplant Activity 2017 to 2022.

Abstract

Background: In this paper, we present organ donation and transplantation activities in Poland from 2017 to 2022. Data came from registries maintained by the Polish Transplant Coordinating Center Poltransplant and consisted of the national waiting list, deceased donor registry, transplant registry, and the live donor registry. Poltransplant is the Competent Authority in Organs, with tasks related to preparing assessments, analyses, information, and reports in transplantation medicine and publishing and disseminating these results in the country and abroad. Poltransplant edits the Poltransplant Bulletin on its web pages and presents its activities at Polish Transplantation Society congresses, published consecutively as professional papers.
