Abstract
Owing to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic that was reported and spread from Bukan, China at the end of 2019, transplant medicine faced various challenges, including COVID-19 infection of recipients, transmission of infection through human traffic for transplantation, and the risk of COVID-19 infection of transplant patients. Therefore, a comparison of the number of organ donations and deceased donor liver transplant cases between 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic, and after 2020, after the pandemic, was performed.
