Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Acute rejection remains a major challenge following face vascularized composite allotransplantation (VCA) and can lead to allograft dysfunction or loss. Donor-derived cell-free DNA (ddcfDNA) has emerged as a promising noninvasive biomarker for allograft injury and rejection monitoring in solid organ transplantation. However, its application to VCA remains largely unexplored, and data characterizing...
