Isolated intestinal versus composite visceral allografts: causes of graft failure.
Between May 2, 1990 and May 4, 1999. 124 consecutive patients received a total of 130 intestinal allografts: 51 isolated intestine and 79 composite visceral grafts (62 liver :!: intestine and 17 multivisceral). Of these. 73 (59%) were children and 51 (41%) were adults. All grafts were cadaveric and ABO identical. No attempts were made to alter the graft immunologic tissue with irradiation. anti...
متن کاملIntestinal graft versus host disease.
An ileocolectomy specimen was examined from a patient with graft versus host disease (GvHD). In addition to the characteristic histological features of this condition, both the small and the large intestine showed extensive destruction of mucosal tissue with survival of clusters of enterochromaffin cells. This appearance has previously been described only in the large bowel. Endocrine cells see...
متن کاملACL graft failure location differs between allografts and autografts
BACKGROUND Between 5 and 20% of patients undergoing ACL reconstruction fail and require revision. Animal studies have demonstrated slower incorporation of allograft tissue, which may affect the mechanism of graft failure. The purpose of this study is to determine the location of traumatic graft failure following ACL reconstruction and investigate differences in failure patterns between autograf...
متن کاملIntestinal transplantation in composite visceral grafts or alone.
Under FK 506-based immunosuppression, the entire cadaver small bowel except for a few proximal and distal centimeters was translated to 17 randomly matched patients, of whom two had antigraft cytotoxic antibodies (positive cross-match). Eight patients received the intestine only, eight had intestine in continuity with the liver, and one received a full multivisceral graft that included the live...
متن کاملBlockade of lymphocyte chemotaxis in visceral graft-versus-host disease.
BACKGROUND Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major barrier to successful allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT). The chemokine receptor CCR5 appears to play a role in alloreactivity. We tested whether CCR5 blockade would be safe and limit GVHD in humans. METHODS We tested the in vitro effect of the CCR5 antagonist maraviroc on lymphocyte function and chemotaxis. We then...
