Abstract excerpt
The influence of mismatches for HLA-DR "split" specificities was investigated in more than 8000 cadaver kidney transplants. HLA-DR typing was performed using DNA methodology. Among first transplants, mismatches defined by HLA-DR split specificities did not have a deleterious influence. Among retransplants, however, graft survival was significantly decreased if a mismatch was defined, considering split...
