  • Title: The role of HLA tissue matching in cadaveric kidney transplantation.
    Author: Richie RE, Johnson HK, Tallent MB, Turner B, Vaughn W, Niblack G.
    Journal: Ann Surg; 1979 May; 189(5):581-6. PubMed ID: 375855.
    Abstract:
    The role of HLA match in donor--recipient selection has been studied in 271 patients who received cadaver transplants during a 10-year period. This series included 36 four-antigen matches, 181 three-antigen matches and 54 two-antigen matches. Our results support the concept that better results can be expected when better matched kidneys are utilized for transplantation.
