Why transplants between 1800 and 1950 were not very successful?
Transplant "rejection" was not understood until after 1950.
Why has the development of ideas and techniques involving transplants since 1800 led to present successful transplants?
Transplants between 1800 and 1950 were not very successful, this is because there was not things like tissue typing and immunosuppressive drugs available, these are important because tissue typing test that the tissue is compatible with the body it will be transplanted to, and immunosuppressive drugs destroy the immune system so that the antiboddies wont destroy the new organ.

How dangerous are organ transplants?
They are relatively safe. (The NHS or your local health authority would not fund transplants if they were very unsafe - i.e had bad outcomes. Transplants are quite expensive, but most hospitals/health authorities consider the cost "worth it"- i.e they will fund the operation. This indicates that transplants are not 'high risk'- i.e risk does not outweigh the cost). Obviously, as with any medical procedure, there are some risks attached.
