An organ that is divided into segments (liver, lung, pancreas, intestine) is counted once per transplant.

Kidney-pancreas and heart-lung transplants are counted as one transplant. Other multiple organ transplants are counted only in the multiple organ row. See Table 1.8 for a breakdown of all multiple organ transplants from deceased donors.
