TransMedics, Inc., a medical technology company dedicated to improving quality, assessing viability and increasing the utilization of donor organs for transplantation announced the closing of $51.2 million growth equity financing.

TransMedics has developed the Organ Care System (OCS™), a revolutionary first-in-class technology and multi-organ platform with the potential to improve outcomes for transplant patients and to dramatically increase the number of transplantable organs worldwide. The OCS™ is the only fully portable technology that maintains donor organs in a near-physiologic state outside of the human body and addresses the current limitations of cold storage.

The WilmerHale team on the transaction was led by Partner Rosemary Reilly and included Counsel Peter Osborn and Associate Byron Crowe.
