Posttransplant bone disease: a case illustrating dramatic improvements in bone density with vitamin D replacement therapy.

abstract：:For maximum use of left liver plus caudate lobe grafts, the short hepatic vein draining the caudate lobe should be reconstructed. We devised a new venoplasty technique. On the graft side, a wide venous orifice with a long cuff was formed by gathering the left, middle, and short hepatic veins using a conduit vein graft...

In its nonsevere form, cGVHD associates with better control of the malignant disease, thus highlighting graft-versus-leukemia effects. However, severe cGVHD leads to debilitating morbidity and increased nonrelapse mortality. The predi...
