Research progress in uterus allotransplantation / 中国免疫学杂志

ABSTRACT

The application of microsurgery and immunosuppressive agents have led to remarkable progress in uterus allotransplantation for patients with absolute uterine infertility. At present, more than 40 cases of human uterus transplantation have been successfully carried out worldwide, and 12 healthy newborn babies have been delivered using cesarean section. However, selection of transplant donors and recipient, in vitro uterine perfusion, the immunosuppressive therapy and characteristics of graft rejection after uterus allotransplantation are worthy of attention. This article reviews the research progress in uterus allotransplantation.
