Evidence that portal tract microvascular destruction precedes bile duct loss in human liver allograft rejection.

abstract：:Hepatitis C virus (HCV) remains the leading indication for liver transplant in much of the world and has traditionally been associated with diminished posttransplant survival due to recurrent HCV-related liver disease. This field has been dramatically changed by the advent of safe and effective direct-acting antiviral...
