Nicholas Tilney published more than 550 scientific articles and chapters. During the last decade of his life, he published three books: Transplant-From Myth to Reality (2003), A Perfectly Striking Departure: Surgeons and Surgery at the Peter Bent Brigham Hospital, 1912–1980 (2006), and, most recently, Invasion of the Body: Revolutions in Surgery (2011).

The next chapter is a very contentious subject, a discussion of the pros and cons of prior blood transfusion in organ transplantation.
