Small-Bowel Transplantation Experimental and Clinical Fundamentals

In contrast to the continuously increasing success in kidney, liver, heart, and pancreas transplantation, small-bowel transplantation has not shown simi­ larly impressive progress until recently. The few clinical attempts at small-intestinal transplantation in the late 1960s and early 1970s were uns...
