TL;DR: Post-transplant lymphomas or other lymphoproliferative lesions developed in 8, 4, 3, and 2 recipients, respectively, of cadaveric kidney, liver, heart, and heart-lung homografts, often without subsequent rejection of the grafts.
Journal ArticleDOI
The frequency of epstein-barr virus infection and associated lymphoproliferative syndrome after transplantation and its manifestations in children
Monto Ho,Ronald Jaffe,George Miller,Mary Kay Breinig,J. Stephen Dummer,Leonard Makowka,R. Wayne Atchison,Frederick M. Karrer,Michael A. Nalesnik,Thomas E. Starzl +9 more
TL;DR: The results reinforce the importance of primary EBV infection in producing LPS, which was previously shown in adults, and children are at greater risk because they are more likely to be seronegative for EBV and to acquire primary infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
The association of Epstein-Barr virus with smooth-muscle tumors occurring after organ transplantation.
Elsie S. Lee,Joseph Locker,Michael A. Nalesnik,Jorge Reyes,Ronald Jaffe,Mouied Alashari,Bakr Nour,Andreas G. Tzakis,Paul S. Dickman +8 more
TL;DR: Smooth-muscle tumors that developed after organ transplantation contained clonal EBV, suggesting that the virus has a role in the development of these neoplastic lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Properties of a basement membrane-related glycoprotein synthesized in culture by a mouse embryonal carcinoma-derived cell line
Albert E. Chung,Ronald Jaffe,Ian L. Freeman,Jean-Paul Vergnes,Janina E. Braginski,Barry E. Carlin +5 more
TL;DR: The presence of LETS protein and GP-2 in basement membranes suggests that there are subtle interactions which are important in adhesion of epithelial cells to basement membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transplantation of Multiple Abdominal Viscera
Thomas E. Starzl,Marc I. Rowe,Satoru Todo,Ronald Jaffe,Andreas G. Tzakis,Allen L. Hoffman,Carlos O. Esquivel,Kendrick A. Porter,Raman Venkataramanan,Leonard Makowka,Rene Duquesnoy +10 more
TL;DR: Two children with the short-gut syndrome and secondary liver failure were treated with evisceration and transplantation en bloc of the stomach, small intestine, colon, pancreas, and liver, and the constituent organs of the homograft functioned and maintained their morphological integrity throughout the 193 days of survival.
