Deceased donor organ donation is inadequate; hence, the number of patients on the waiting lists is progressively growing in the world. However, in Iran the deceased donor rate has increased over the past 10 years, from less than 1% by the end of year 2000 to almost 16.3% (approximately 311 cases) of kidney transplantations in 2007. Although the percentage of deceased donor kidney transplantation in some countries of the region are higher than Iran, the absolute annual number in Iran is higher than the Middle Eastern countries. The outlook for deceased donor kidney transplantation practice in Iran is promising. Meanwhile, the annual number of kidney transplantations from deceased donors in Baqiyatallah hospital, as the second transplant unit in terms of the volume of kidney transplantation in Iran, increased from 0.4% in 2002 to 14% and 31% in 2007 and 2008, respectively.
已故捐赠者器官捐献数量不足，因此，全球等待器官移植的患者人数在不断增加。然而，在伊朗，过去10年里已故捐赠者比例有所上升，从2000年底的不到1%增至2007年肾移植案例的近16.3%（约311例）。尽管该地区一些国家已故捐赠者肾移植的比例高于伊朗，但伊朗的年度绝对数量高于中东国家。伊朗已故捐赠者肾移植的前景很乐观。与此同时，作为伊朗肾移植量第二大的移植单位，巴基耶塔拉医院已故捐赠者肾移植的年度数量分别从2002年的0.4%增至2007年的14%和2008年的31%。
