Evaluating the risk of transmission of infection from donor to recipient of a solid organ transplantation

In the context of solid organ transplantation, screening of potential organ donors is crucial, and should be performed with great rigor to minimize the risk of transmission of certain infectious processes. This review aims to update understanding of the possible pathologies involved, as well as of e...

description In the context of solid organ transplantation, screening of potential organ donors is crucial, and should be performed with great rigor to minimize the risk of transmission of certain infectious processes. This review aims to update understanding of the possible pathologies involved, as well as of emerging infections that, as a result of globalization, are gaining increasing prominence on a daily basis.
