This article is over organ transplants to HIV+ people. This article admits the limits of the research. This is the 1st article I've seen discussing the outcomes of transplants to HIV+ patients. While there were some differences between patients with & without HIV, they were similar.
Patients with controlled HIV do well, and should have ongoing access to life saving liver and kidney transplantation.
While that's a big statement, more research is needed. In addition, no studies are currently available covering the aftercare of those receiving organs from HIV+ donors. This is a good read, but just a first step.
