TL;DR: Most cases with DSA at the time of rejection had widespread C4d deposits in peritubular capillaries, suggesting a pathogenic role of the circulating alloantibody.
Ethical Issues Clarified by Outcome; Outcome Enhanced by a Reliable Crossmatch
Francis L. Delmonico,Nina Tolkoff-Rubin,Mary Lin Farrell,Donna M. Fitzpatrick,Susan L. Saidman,John T. Herrin,A. Benedict Cosimi +6 more
TL;DR: The 1-, 3-, and 5-year actuarial allograft survival rates were 86, 78, and 69%, respectively, which were not significantly different from the survival rates of primary allogRAFTs at this center as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Second Renal Transplantations: Ethical Issues Clarified by Outcome; Outcome Enhanced by a Reliable Crossmatch
Francis L. Delmonico,Nina Tolkoff-Rubin,Hugh Auchincloss,Mary Lin Farrell,Donna M. Fitzpatrick,Susan L. Saidman,John T. Herrin,A. Benedict Cosimi +7 more
TL;DR: The initial and long-term outcomes of second-renal transplant recipients at the Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston are reviewed, and the continued approach of providing both cadaver-donor and living-donors renal allografts for recipients whose primary renalAllograft has failed is supported.
Book ChapterDOI
Complement-dependent cytotoxicity crossmatch.
TL;DR: The complement-dependent cytotoxic crossmatch is an informative test that detects alloantibodies in pre- and post-transplant patients, which may dictate clinical management of transplant patients.
