Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: HLA matching has improved outcome in kidney transplantation but is not considered in current allocation policies in heart transplantation. The aim of this single-center study was to assess the impact of HLA matching on long- term outcome after heart transplantation. METHODS: The records of 240 consecutive heart transplant recipients (time period 1995 to 2002; mean age 51.8 +/- 11.7 years; mean...
