Atrial anastomotic thrombus causes neurologic deficits in a lung transplant recipient.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Currently, many transplantation centers do not follow former living kidney donors on a long-term basis. Several potential barriers have been identified to provide this follow-up of former living kidney donors, including concerns that donor insurance will not reimburse transplantation centers or primary care ...
