Using <scp>SARS</scp> ‐ <scp>CoV</scp> ‐2‐Positive Donors Under 1 Year of Age: A Case Series of Successful Combined Liver‐Pancreas and Isolated Liver Pediatric Transplantation
Our case series is the first to establish the feasibility of non-pulmonary solid organ transplants from a COVID-positive donor under 1 year of age. This is also the first report of a successful combined liver-pancreas transplant from an infant donor. Transplantation from donors with a positive SARS-CoV-2 test may be feasible with adequate serologic testing and postoperative management.
