No. In spite of better tissue matching , more organ availabilty , and better surgical techniques and anti-rejection drugs, there are still failures.

If you're talking about organ transplants, it's because there were no anti-rejection drugs available on the market prior to this.
Generally if transplantation did not have reasonable outcomes, they would not be funded. (Since only effective treatments are worth funding). Organ transplants remain the best, and in some cases, only, way of curing end-stage organ diseases. This does not mean to say that everybodys' organ transplant will be completely successful, but to date it remains the best "cure" for end-stage diseases.
the liver NIBF~ It's probably the skin if you are trying to get the whole thing also the skin is the fastest organ to be rejected from the body
As of 2023, Australia has conducted over 40,000 successful organ transplants since the first one in 1963. The number of transplants continues to increase each year, with advancements in medical technology and donor awareness campaigns contributing to this growth. The most commonly transplanted organs include kidneys, livers, and hearts. For the most current statistics, it is advisable to consult the Australian Organ and Tissue Authority or relevant medical organizations.
why were transplants between 1800 and 1950 not successful?
Blood type is significant in determining compatibility for organ transplants because the recipient's immune system can reject an organ if the blood types of the donor and recipient are not compatible. Matching blood types helps reduce the risk of rejection and increases the chances of a successful transplant.
Transplants between twins are often successful due to their genetic similarity, which reduces the likelihood of organ rejection by the recipient's immune system. Since identical twins share the same DNA, the transplanted organ is recognized as "self" by the recipient's body, minimizing the need for immunosuppressive medications. This compatibility significantly enhances the chances of a successful transplant and better long-term outcomes.
The first successful kidney transplant between two twins. Proved that it was possible and aided in the understanding of 'rejection'.
