When were organ transplants invented?

Organ transplants began in the early 20th century, with the first successful kidney transplant taking place in 1954 between identical twins. This marked a significant milestone in transplant surgery, leading to advancements in techniques and immunosuppressive therapies that improved transplant outcomes. Other organs, such as the heart and liver, followed in the 1960s and beyond, further establishing organ transplantation as a crucial medical procedure.
