Deck 45: Organ Procurement and Transplantation

Question 1

A child awaiting a liver transplant requires a liver donated by a child because of patient size and surface area of the liver.

Answer 1

False
The liver may be separated into two sections and used for two recipients.The left lobe or a left lateral segmental graft may be transplanted into an infant or child; the right side,which is larger,can be transplanted into an adult.The adult donor gives the left lobe (the smaller lobe)if the recipient is an infant or a child.The liver grows as the child grows over time.

Question 2

Which is one of the three types of bone marrow transplants?

A)Synologous
B)Allogeneic
C)Xenologous
D)Isogenic

Answer 2

B
The three types of bone marrow transplants are allogeneic,autologous,and T cell-depleted marrow.Allogeneic transplants occur when the donor is HLA compatible with the recipient.Autologous transplants occur when the donor is the recipient.A T cell-depleted transplant occurs when the mature T lymphocytes are removed from donor marrow before being infused into the recipient.
