The average time for an organ transplant operation is around 8 hours, but this timing can vary quite significantly depending upon how "easy" the surgery is. For example, first transplants are easier to do than retransplants, single transplants are easier than multiple-organ transplants. The number of transplant surgeons available and how experienced they are will also have a bearing on surgery times.
Most transplants will fall within the range of 6 - 14 hours, although it is feasible that a large multiple-organ transplant could take longer.
