Results of Islet Isolation and their Relationship to the Clinical Outcome of Kidney Transplantation in Cases where Both Grafts are Harvested from the Same Non-Heart-Beating Donor

Results of Islet Isolation and their Relationship to the Clinical Outcome of Kidney Transplantation in Cases where Both Grafts are Harvested from the Same Non-Heart-Beating Donor

Grafts from non-heart-beating donors (NHBDs) are used because of the limited availability of heart-beating brain-dead donors.
