Evidence for Recipient-Derived Cells in Peribiliary Glands and Biliary Epithelium of the Large Donor Bile Ducts After Liver Transplantation

Evidence for Recipient-Derived Cells in Peribiliary Glands and Biliary Epithelium of the Large Donor Bile Ducts After Liver Transplantation

IntroductionChimerism after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) has largely been investigated in intrahepatic cellular constituents. However, little is known about chimerism in the extrahepatic and large intrahepatic bile ducts. Our aim was to evaluate the presence and extent of chimerism after O...
