The impact of thromboelastography on resuscitation in pediatric liver transplantation.

abstract：:Omenn's syndrome is a rare inherited variant of SCID. It is inevitably fatal, unless treated by bone marrow or stem cell transplantation. However, treatment-related complications and graft rejection are major obstacles to the success of transplantation. In this report, we describe an eight-month-old baby with Omenn's ...
