Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of passenger leukocytes in liver grafts on the rate of microchimerism induction after liver transplantation and to evaluate immunological changes thereafter based on serial donor-specific MLC's in these patients. METHODS: 26 orthotopic liver transplant recipients were prospectively evaluated for immunological changes based on the co-transplantation of donor-derived leukocytes....
