Rezensionen

From the reviews: "Provide a clear, concise and transparent overview of renal transplantation, suitable as a primer for most trainees in nephrology and transplantation. The chapters are well written, the right length and concentrate on key concepts in transplantation, including histocompatibility, donor and recipient work-up, immunotherapies and early and late allograft dysfunction, with illustrations and tables used throughout to good effect. This book can be recommended to those in their first year of transplantation training and to allied health-care professionals with an interest in transplantation."
