title: [The status of organ transplantation in France and Europe in November 1987].
abstract: The number of organ transplantations in France is constantly and impressively increasing, but this progress remains insufficient. Compared with other European countries, France ranks first as regards the number of heart transplantations performed in 1984 but is lagging behind as regards kidney transplantations. Since potential donors, the France-Transplant organization and qualified teams of operators are available, further advances are to be expected from a reinforcement of the facilities available to France-Transplants.
