Uncontrolled Donation After Circulatory Death: A Unique Opportunity.

abstract：:We reviewed coded autopsy material from 71 dogs, 46 receiving allogeneic and 25 receiving autologous bone marrow transplants, to evaluate the hypothesis that lymphocytic bronchitis is associated with severe acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). We found no significant correlation between the presence of lymphocytic ...
