  29. Anecdotes • My first patient

  30. UK Kidney Transplantation • 1955 St Mary’s • 1959 Leeds and Royal Free Hospital • 1960 Edinburgh • 1962 Hammersmith

  31. UK Liver Transplantation:Roy Calne and Roger Williams Addenbrooke’s King’s College Cambridge London 1968

  32. UK Heart Transplantation: Terence English and MagdiYacoub PapworthHarefield 1979 1980

  33. Anecdotes • My first heart donor:

  34. Anecdotes • My first heart donor: “To wrench the quivering heart from a freshly dead corpse is not a procedure with which I wish to be associated”

  35. The BTS: memoir of John Hopewell • “In the intervening years (1960-1968) I was occupied by forming the London Transplant Group, which became an almost nationwide organization for the exchange of donor kidneys, ultimately to become the National Kidney Registry. Toward the end of the 1960’s, Leslie Brent of the British Society of Immunology, and I realised that both bodies were planning to become a British Transplantation Society and we had support from each to form a single society under that name. Its inaugural meting was held at the Royal Free Hospital on 12th April 1972, when Sir Peter Medawar was elected as the first president”.

  36. What’s happened since 1983? • Good things: • Immunosuppression • Cyclosporin, Tacrolimus, MMF, Rapamycin, Monoclonal Abs • Surgery, anaesthesia and intensive care • Histocompatability science • Antibiotics and other agents • Biopsy/biomarkers for diagnosis of rejection

  37. What’s happened since 1983? • Bad things: • The donor shortage • Changing donor demographics • Less DBD donors • Age • Co-morbidity

  39. Challenges for the future

  40. Challenges for the future • New science • All the “-omics”

  41. Challenges for the future • New science • All the “-omics” • New forms of transplantation • Face • Limbs • ? Ovary/uterus

  42. Challenges for the future • New science • New forms of transplantation • Managing expectations • Number of organs available • Organ quality • Outcomes

  43. ‘Ideal’ donors <60 years, BMI<30, no history of smoking or hypertension No. of donors

  44. Challenges for the future • New science • Newforms of transplantation • Managing expectations • Avoid complacency • Obsessional care • Continuity of care
