Dr Christian Barnard performed the world's first human heart transplant operation on 3 December 1967. The patient, Louis Washkansky lived for eighteen days after the operation. This is regarded as the first 'success', but future transplant patients lived on for considerably longer.
The first organ transplant occurred in 1954, when Ronald Lee Herrick donated one of his kidneys to his brother, Richard. The surgery was led by Dr. Joseph Murray, who later won a Nobel prize for developing the surgical technique regarding kidney transplants. The surgery took place in Boston, Massachusetts.
The patient in South Africa only lived 18 days after the 1967 transplant after catching double pneunonia. This led to the search for better anti- rejection drugs. ps, the very first heart transplant was an operation upon a dog in the 1950s USA.
A team led by Christiaan (this is the proper South African spelling, with two "a"s) Bernard performed the first successful human to human heart transplant in South Africa in 1967. The patient lived 18 days before succumbing to pneumonia.An earlier unsuccessful transplant of a Chimpanzee heart into a dying human was performed by a team led by James D. Hardy in Mississippi, USA, in 1964 (the patient lived only 90 minutes). This was the first heart transplant involving a human.Robert Koffler Jarvik (the previous answer posted here) performed the first artificial heart implant, not the first heart transplant.

he road to successful heart transplants was a bit of a rocky one. The first heart transplant was conducted in 1964 when a monkey heart was placed in the chest of a dying man. This, of course, raised a great number of ethical considerations. Unfortunately, the man's life was only prolonged for about 90 minutes, but the procedure set the stage for future operations between humans. The first intra-human operation was performed in 1967 with a heart from a brain-dead donor. The patient lived only 18 days before succumbing to pneumonia.
The average liver transplant surgery takes anywhere from 4 to 8 hours to complete. This includes the removal of the non-functional liver to attaching the replacement liver and closing the wound.
The first successful open heart surgery was performed on July 9, 1893, when Dr. Daniel Hale Williams, an African-American, opened the chest of a man and repaired the pericardium (sac surrounding the heart), which had been damaged by a knife stabbing. The patient recovered after 51 days and lived for another 50 years.

The first lung transplant was attempted by Dr. Hardy at the University of Mississippi in 1964. This was not a successful procedure. The first long-term success with single lung transplantation was performed by the team at the University of Toronto Thoracic Surgery Group in Toronto, Canada (at the Toronto General Hospital) in 1983. The Toronto group also performed the first successful double lung transplant in 1986. Prior to that, the Stanford University group performed the first successful heart-lung transplant.
