Rabies Virus Transmission in Solid Organ Transplantation, China, 2015–2016
We report rabies virus transmission among solid organ transplantation recipients in Changsha, China, in 2016. Two recipients were confirmed to have rabies and died. Our findings suggest that more attention should be paid to the possibility of rabies virus transmission through organ transplantation for clinical and public health reasons.
متن کاملRaccoon rabies virus variant transmission through solid organ transplantation.
IMPORTANCE The rabies virus causes a fatal encephalitis and can be transmitted through tissue or organ transplantation. In February 2013, a kidney recipient with no reported exposures to potentially rabid animals died from rabies 18 months after transplantation. OBJECTIVES To investigate whether organ transplantation was the source of rabies virus exposure in the kidney recipient, and to eval...
متن کاملClinical Immunosuppression in Solid Organ and Composite Tissue Allotransplantation
Although organ and tissue transplantation has been a fantasy for centuries, the epidemic of discovery in transplantation has taken place primarily during the past 55 years. In 1954, Dr J. Murray was presented with the unique opportunity to transplant a human kidney between identical twins without facing the challenges of acute or chronic allograft rejection as well as side effects of long-term ...
متن کاملComposite Tissue Allotransplantation Immunology
Composite tissue allotransplantation (CTA) is an option recently introduced for major reconstruction of tissue defects. Since announcements of successful hand, larynx, knee, muscle, nerve, abdominal wall and, most recently, partial face transplantation, CTA has become one of the techniques used by plastic and reconstructive surgeons [1]. Clinical success in CTA is the culmination of progress in...
متن کاملPropagation of Rabies Virus in Tissue Culture
Rabies virus has been propagated in serum-Tyrode solution containing either embryo mouse brain or embryo chick brain. The culture virus reached a titre of 3 x 10(-5) cc. after 4 days' incubation at 37 degrees C., and survived at least 2 months at 5 degrees C. in the liquid or dry state.
