This book represents a refreshing and broad view of the nature of
allografts, as well as the challenges involved in their use as
critical therapy for a variety of different health problems. It is
the work of a group of very talented and experienced physicians
representing different medical disciplines, but all of them
intimately involved with the use of allografts, presenting their
distilled experience. The notion of allografts is explored in
specialty areas ranging from orthopaedics and thoracic surgery to
kidney and liver transplantation, in an effort to identify certain
common themes having to do with the immunological response to the
allograft and the various methods to avoid rejection. Chapters in
this book present current challenges in the use of bone allografts
in complex orthopaedic procedures, in addition to dealing in depth
with the use of hepatic and renal allografts in liver and kidney
transplantation. Complex issues, such as the role of the immune
system trying to deal with allograft acceptance or rejection on the
one hand, and the presence of hepatitis B or C infection on the
other hand, with the addition of the possibility of coexisting
hepatocellular malignancy, are at the core of this book. The
authors present the therapeutic problems seen in clinical practice
and offer possible solutions, based on their extensive experience.
This book will be a valuable resource to scientists involved in
disciplines such as transplantation, immunology, and orthopaedics,
as the themes that are analysed here cover a broad range of areas.
