Abstract
Transplantation is one of the most used “gold-standard” treatments and is carried
out in 111 countries. However, even though there are more than 130 000
solid-organ transplantations performed annually worldwide, there are not
sufficient organs available for all patients on the waiting list. Organ donation
rates vary widely between countries, with Spain having the highest rate in
international comparison
