متن کاملUnderlying disease as a predictor for rejection after liver transplantation.
BACKGROUND As significantly more patients die of infection than of rejection after liver transplantation, we have to conclude that overimmunosuppression is common. Our analysis was performed to investigate underlying disease as an appropriate parameter for individually reduced immunosuppression. DESIGN A consecutive series of patients receiving primary liver transplantation was analyzed with ...
