Rechazo al trasplante - Prevention

Nombres alternativos

Rechazo al injerto; Rechazo a un órgano o tejido

Prevención:

La hemoclasificación ABO y la tipificación de HLA (antígeno tisular) antes de un trasplante ayudan a garantizar una compatibilidad cercana. Usted generalmente necesitará tomar el medicamento para inhibir el sistema inmunitario por el resto de su vida para evitar el rechazo del tejido.

El hecho de tener cuidado al tomar adecuadamente los medicamentos después del trasplante y de tener una vigilancia atenta por parte del médico puede ayudar a prevenir el rechazo.
