Abstract
An organ preservation container includes a container body, joints, and tubes. The container body includes a bottom plate and a side wall. The side wall has through holes. Each joint has a through hole. The tubes are connected to the joints from the inner side of the container body. Thus, the tubes are arranged in advance in the container body in an organ transplant operation. This enables a small number of people to speedily conduct the work of placing an organ removed from the donor in the container body and connecting the tubes to blood vessels in the organ.
