A quarter of a century ago the commencement of liver transplantation in Australia was controversial and surrounded by medical and political intrigue. The medical opposition to its establishment was led by the Medical Journal of Australia with scathing condemnation, especially with regard to the transplantation of children. Interstate political rivalry, most prominently between the Queensland and Victorian and Federal Governments was at the forefront and was a fertile field for media attention. Despite all the obstacles, liver transplantation came to fruition and the results achieved have more than justified its introduction and continued performance. In addition, contributions from Australia have had a significant impact around the world.
