Abstract

Since the first long term successful transplantation in the human in 1959, our group at the Necker Hospital has been concerned that a range of immunological tests, inspired by basic research into graft immunity, be introduced into clinical transplantation. We were thus the first in 1959 to concentrate our efforts on the immunologic selection of the donor and on discovering the means of assessing the degree of immunologic similarity between donor and recipient.
