Liver transplantation at OHSU began in 1988, and the program received Medicare certification in 1993.
Excellent pretransplant and posttransplant care and cutting-edge technology are the hallmarks of the OHSU Liver Transplant Program.
More than 24 years of experience has produced quality patient and graft survival with one-year rates comparable to the national norm (source: Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients, www.srtr.org).
