  • * Results showed no significant difference in severe PGD rates at 72 hours between techniques, but TA-NRP patients had a significantly lower overall incidence of PGD and equivalent post-transplant outcomes compared to A-NRP.

Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a recently recognized fibro-inflammatory pathology that has been reported to affect principally the retroperitoneum, hepatobiliary system, salivary glands, orbital structures or lymph nodes.
