    Immunosuppression and Reoperation After Simultaneous Kidney Pancreas Transplantation Convey Greatest Risk for Rejection

    C. Bratton, V. Rohan, S. Nadig, J. Mcgillicuddy, K. Chavin, P. Baliga, D. Taber.

    MUSC, Charleston, SC.

    Background: Episodes of acute cellular rejection (ACR) convey significant morbidity after simultaneous kidney and pancreas transplantation (SPK). The role of recipient sensitization, immunosuppression (IS) and…
