Sirolimus Use in Liver Transplant Recipients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Randomized, Multicenter, Open-Label Phase 3 Trial

Edward K. Geissler, +68 more
- 01 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: This trial provides the first high-level evidence base for selecting immunosuppression in LTx recipients with HCC and reveals that low-risk, rather than high- risk, patients benefited most from sirolimus; furthermore, younger recipients (age ⩽60) also benefited, as well siro Limus monotherapy patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonbone Marrow-Derived Circulating Progenitor Cells Contribute to Postnatal Neovascularization Following Tissue Ischemia

TL;DR: It is found that nonbone marrow- derived c-kit+CD45– progenitors contribute to postnatal neovascularization to an extent that is similar to that of bone marrow-derived progenitor cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

The janus face of immunosuppression - de novo malignancy after renal transplantation: the experience of the transplantation center munich

TL;DR: Interestingly, the use of IL-2-receptor antagonists significantly reduced the tumor risk of transplant recipients and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor-based immunosuppressive protocols showed a clear tendency for lower malignancy rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Blumgart anastomosis for pancreaticojejunostomy minimizes severe complications after pancreatic head resection

TL;DR: A new transpancreatic suture technique (Blumgart anastomosis, BA), which aims to avoid shear forces during knot‐tying, is evaluated, which is found to be effective in reducing leakage from the pancreaticojejunostomy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of graft steatosis on liver function and organ survival after liver transplantation.

TL;DR: Steatotic livers can be transplanted safely with good results for long-term organ survival if other contraindications are absent and the degree of donor steatosis does not depend on the degree.
