Abstract:

To study the immunological phenomena in a rapidly rejected organ xenograft,rabbit-to-dog liver transplants were performed in 15 dogs, and serological,morphological, and hemodynamic investigations were carried out. Livers wererejected within 5—7 minutes, retaining 88% of affluent platelets, 76% ofneutrophils, as well as hemagglutinins and complement. Data obtained inanimal experiments corroborate the findings in extracorporeal porcine liverperfusion in man. They indicate that a similar biological mechanism, is responsible for destruction in both situations.
