title: [Organ donation in Germany].
abstract: The main problem facing the German transplantation program is the failure to obtain a continuous increase in organ procurement. To overcome the resulting lack of transplantable organs it is absolutely necessary to have a final parliamentary decision on a transplantation law in Germany. Organisational structures for transplantation, organ allocation and organ donation can be immediately implemented once legislation exist.
