Over a period of 33 years, it has become possible to successfully transplant individual intra-abdominal viscera or combinations of these organs. The consequences have been, first, new information about the metabolic interrelations that the visceral organs have in disease or health; second, the addition of several procedures to the treatment armamentarium of gastrointestinal diseases; and third, a more profound understanding of the means by which all whole organ grafts are accepted.
在33年的时间里，成功移植单个腹腔内脏器或这些器官的组合已成为可能。其结果是，首先，获得了关于内脏器官在疾病或健康状态下代谢相互关系的新信息；其次，在胃肠疾病的治疗手段中增加了几种手术方法；第三，对所有全器官移植被接受的方式有了更深刻的理解。
