Current Concepts in Transplantation
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The incredible pace at which transplantation science and surgery have evolved makes it impossible for surgeons, nephrologists, and fellows alike to scan and make sense of the plethora of publications available regarding one topic. “Current Concepts in Transplantation” has been designed to avoid this dead end and to help to keep transplant specialists abreast of the changes in the field, by focusing on the historical background and current data, as well as the steps taken to overcome the challenges in the sector. The book will address in a timely manner the most important transplant-related aspects not addressed by current textbooks in regular print. Renowned transplant surgeons, nephrologists, and scientists who have been working in these fields are invited to contribute.
