A Discovery Health answered. Organs you can donate while you are living include: part of the pancreas, a kidney, part of a lung, part of the intestine or part of the liver. Single kidneys make up the majority of donations from living donors. People who are between 35 years old and 49 years old represent the biggest group of living donors. That is followed by donors, in the age group of 18 to 34, and those in the age group of 50 to 64.
Most livers that are transplanted come from organ donors shortly after they die. Organ donors are usually adults or children who have become critically ill (often due to an accident). If the donor is an adult, he or she may have agreed to be an organ donor. Parents or spouses can also agree to donate a relative's organs. When an organ is received from a deceased donor, it is called a âdeceased donorâ transplant. A child receiving a transplant may get either a whole liver or a piece (segment) of a liver.
