Renal dysfunction (RD) is a frequent complication after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT), and it has an unfavorable effect on the prognosis of OLT patients. The purpose of our study was to identify possible risk factors for RD and its impact on survival. The possible relations of pre-, peri-,
Whilst HLA matching is routine in renal transplantation the possible benefits of matching donor to recipient age have not been previously explored. The simultaneous effect on graft survival of donor and recipient age was therefore investigated for 274 consecutive first cadaver transplant recipients
The prevalence, natural history, and implications of reactive thrombocytosis after liver transplantation (LT) are unknown. Prospectively collected data from July 2000 to February 2006 were analyzed. Post-LT thrombocytosis was defined as a platelet count of ΟΎ450 Ο« 10 3 /L lasting for ΟΎ7 days and star
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. Among recipients of renal transplants, the incidences of renal cancer and gastrointestinal cancer are higher and that of skin cancer is much lower in Japan than in Europe and North America. ## METHODS. The risk factors for the development of malignant tumors were exami
