Most limb and male genitalia transplants are considered unsuccessful. Either they reject, or the patient does not become psychologically used to having the graft. (Typically limb grafts have limited sensation due to nerve damage during surgery (it's inevitable). This also means that the graft may have limited movement.) Both of these reasons add up to the general experience of limb transplantation patients - they all seem to describe a feeling of the limb "not belonging to them".
Generally, transplants that are "visible" have a profound psychological impact upon the patient.

5 organs that can be successfully transplanted?
Heart, kidneys, lungs, liver, pancreas, corneas, and small intestine are all commonly transplanted. Almost everything can be transplanted, it's whether the transplant is "successful" that's the problem. Brains are never successfully transplanted. Faces are only just successful. Limbs can be but usually are not, since they are not essential for life. It is whether the organ is essential for life that dictates whether it is commonly transplanted or not.
Which organ is mostly transplanted?
Kidneys
If a donor recipient dies can the organ be re used?
Usually the donor's transplanted organ is not transplanted again - it puts a lot of stress on the organ. And depending on how long the donor recipient has been on immuno-suppression for, some of the other organs may not be used (it can affect the kidneys a lot).
