In the UK, approximately 200 to 300 heart transplants are performed each year. The number can vary based on factors such as organ availability and the overall demand for transplants. Efforts to increase organ donation rates have been ongoing to help meet the needs of patients awaiting heart transplants.

Politics decides a hospital's budget, which influences how many transplants they can do. Sometimes politicians try to reform the organ donation system; "opt-out" to "opt-in" or something. They also influence the critiera required for a "legal" organ transplant.
In 2013 there were 1,923 lung transplants performed in the U.S.
An estimated 50,000 men receive hair transplants each year

Many countries do not record operations, others do not allow public access to them therefore an accurate figure cannot be given.
The demand for organ transplants exceeds the supply of available organ donors due to a variety of reasons, including lack of awareness about organ donation, religious or cultural beliefs, and medical barriers such as donor compatibility. This shortage results in longer waiting times for patients in need of transplants and unfortunately, many individuals die while waiting for a suitable organ to become available.

Animal to animal transplants only ever occur for research purposes, not life-extension of family pets. However when researching for human transplants, many animal transplants have to be done.
