Mass homotransplantation of abdominal organs in dogs.

Abstract: Block transplantation of all abdominal organs, excluding retroperitoneal viscera, has been carried out in 19 dogs. The objective was to study the behavior of a large denervated homograft in which the lymphatic drainage was completely interrupted. Since the implanted tissue contained over 90% of the body’s reticuloendothelial system, it was hoped to learn something of the graft-host rejection phenomena.
