Cutting Edge Advances in Transplantation presents the current state of the science of transplantation. With a unique interdisciplinary approach, this reference collects contributions from selected transplant surgeons, scientists, and immunologists who have worked in the field for the last thirty years. Coverage includes transplantation tolerance, the molecular approach to transplant monitoring, sensitized transplant recipients, xenotransplantation, biologics, and regifted organs. This is the perfect reference for transplant surgeons and nephrologists that want to find new approaches and solutions to serve their patients. It is also ideal for transplantation researchers looking for the most up-to-date scientific information related to the field which can be built upon.
- Highlights new approaches and solutions, including xeno-transplantation, new areas of desensitization, and a molecular approach to monitoring
- Written by selected transplant surgeons, scientists, and immunologists who have worked on the subjects for the last thirty years to provide an interdisciplinary approach
- Examines procedures developed to facilitate transplant operation, including the use of the spiral vein graft, the single stent used for double ureter, the donor aortoplasty, and more
