Six hundred seventy-one first, second and third orthotopic liver allografts in 520 patients were reviewed to determine the effect of donor-recipient mismatches or incompatibilities for the ABO blood groups on graft survival. A significant advantage for ABO donor-recipient identity was found, especia

The aim of this study was to prospectively investigate the peak levels and kinetics of donor leucocyte chimerism in human recipients following liver transplantation. The peak levels of chimerism were observed within the first 48 hours following transplantation and ranged from 0.15% to 20% of total p
Clinical experiences with ABO blood group-incompatible hepatic grafts have shown that, unlike kidney and heart grafts, the liver is more resistant to antibodymediated hyperacute rejection although cases of hyperacute rejections have been reported. Nevertheless, liver transplantation across the ABO b
