abstract: Scandiatransplant is an organ exchange organisation serving a population of about 23 million inhabitants in the five Nordic countries, Iceland, Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark. Scandiatransplant maintains a central waiting list for Scandinavian patients scheduled for cadaver organ transplantation. Since its establishment in 1969, more than 13,000 cadaver renal transplants have been performed, and the numbers of liver, heart and lung transplantations are steadily increasing.
