Shehata's Test for Organ Donation and Transplantation

Abstract

Mohamed S A Mohamed

While the genetic matching between the donor and the recipient is essential for the success of the transplant procedure, there are other genetic factors that have the potential to significantly influence the clinical outcome. In this paper, a relatively simple test is described that has the potential to predict the suitability of the potential donor for organ donation. This test should be performed by the time the person makes his decision to be a future donor.
