Intestinal Retransplantation: Analysis of Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network Database

Abstract

Patient and graft survival in adult isolated ITx are less favorable after a retransplant compared with a primary transplant. Patient and graft survival are also poor in pediatric L-ITx after a retransplant, especially for children younger than 2 years of age. L-ITx retransplant results improved significantly in era 2 in adult recipients.
