Organs that can be transplanted include the heart, the liver, the kidneys, and the lungs- also the cornea of the eye.
Up until recently, lung transplantation on it's own was very difficult, and was only succesful if done in conjunction with a heart transplant at the same time. However, in recent years there has been increasing success in transplanting lungs on their own.
In the early 1980s, some research was done into pancreas transplantation, but this proved unsuccesful and remains a problem that has yet to be overcome.
The one organ that will NEVER be able to be transplanted is the brain- it'll forever be a complete impossibility, and is purely confined to Science Fiction.
Organs and tissues successfully transplanted since 1950 include the heart, liver, kidneys, lungs, pancreas, and corneas. Currently, the most commonly transplanted organs are the kidneys and livers due to the high demand for these organs and the success rates of the procedures.
== == == == At least 21 different organs -- such as hearts, livers, and kidneys -- been transplanted. I believe in 1954, the first kidney transplant was performed successfully. As for the two most common, that I think would be the kidney again and the cornea in the eye. === ===
Tissues have fewer antigens than organs, making them less likely to trigger an immune response in the recipient. Additionally, tissues are less vascularized compared to organs, reducing the chance of immune system recognition and rejection. Lastly, tissues can often be transplanted in smaller amounts, decreasing the likelihood of immune rejection.
kidney, liver, heart, eyes, lungs, pancreas, intestine, and thymus
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.

kidney and heart
The skin
The answer is obvious. Many of the organs transplanted are organs that people cannot live without. These organs are transplanted from people who have passed on and left it their will to transplant certain organs from their body.

yes
All organs have been successfully transplanted except the brain.
Hearts, liver, kidneys, lungs, small intestine, pancreas, corneas, heart valves. Some other things have been transplanted (both successfully and unsuccessfully), but typically only "life saving" organs are routinely transplanted.
tissues or whole organs transplanted from one species to another =D
No, not vital organs. Just kidneys and stuff like that. P.S. GO SLAPPY!
