The purpose of this study is to review the clinical experience with sirolimus immunosuppression in liver transplant patients with calcineurin inhibitor-induced chronic renal insufficiency. The study design is a case-control retrospective series. Fifty-seven liver transplant patients with renal insuf
Renal impairment is common in patients after liver transplantation and is attributable in large part to the use of calcineurin inhibitor (CNI)-based immunosuppression. We sought to determine whether conversion to sirolimus-based immunosuppression was associated with improved renal function. In a sin
