Assessment of Donor‐Specific Human Leukocyte Antigen Antibodies Following Pediatric Liver Transplantation: Predictors, Protectors, and Clinical Relevance
DSA were detectable in 39% and associated with AMR in 13% of children post-pLT in addition to worse graft survival in all patients. Patient survival of 97% was not influenced. Potential DSA and predictors and protectors were identified. Therefore, DSA diagnostics are recommended after pLT.
