My 19yr old son just had a second liver transplant. He was born with Biliary Atresia and has his first at 8 mo old. Both were living donor, the first from his father and the second from a donor in the Liver Paired Donation Program.

I am new to the Group, I was encouraged to participate in it by the question about who has already had a second transplant - my daughter's situation: first in 2003, the retransplant now in June 2023. My participation is a request for information on what is the basic Medical Protocol in the USA in cases of retransplantation ?, because I would like to see if it could help in any way in the postoperative period of this retransplantation of my daughter, done at Hosp-A.Einstein-Brazil, 36th place in the world according to American ranking: medicines used (here, Tracolimus is a sacred cow), level of hepatic compatibility cadaver donor-recipient, periodicity of medical follow-up and appropriate examinations, etc, etc. Thanks - mwb37
