Reduced ATG-F dosage for induction in pediatric renal transplantation: a single-center experience.

abstract：:Major neurologic complications secondary to cyclosporine are well documented and are known to include confusion, cortical blindness, seizure, spasticity, paresis, ataxia and coma. Most previous reports attribute these to white matter central nervous system (CNS) lesions or white/grey matter border lesions. Many predis...
