Venous Thromboembolism and the Risk of Death and Graft Loss in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Background: The incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in kidney transplant recipients varies widely in the literature. The implications of VTE for morbidity and mortality in…2017 American Transplant Congress
Delayed Graft Function[mdash]Less Ominous for ARF or DCD Recipients?
University of Michigan, Ann Arbor
