Living Donor Training During ASTS Fellowship: Disparities in Autonomy Between Kidney and Liver Donation. A National Survey. [PDF]
Clin TransplantABSTRACT Background Living donor transplantation should be a cornerstone for kidney and liver transplant surgeons. However, achieving technical independence, especially in living donor liver transplantation (LDLT), remains a challenge. This survey evaluates the experiences and barriers faced during the American Society of Transplant Surgeons (ASTS ...
