With remarkable progress being reported in living donor liver transplants and small bowel transplantation, the 9th Keio International Symposium for Life Sciences and Medicine was auspiciously timed. Titled "Current Issues in Liver/Small Bowel Transplantation," the Tokyo symposium brought together researchers from Japan and other parts of the world. This volume is a compilation of papers from the symposium, organized into five key areas of interest to medical professionals: Technical aspects and physiological problems in split/living donor liver transplantation; Viral hepatitis and liver transplantation; Current status and future prospects in small bowel transplantation; Liver transplantation for malignant hepatic tumors; and Novel strategies in immunosuppression. Containing the most up-to-date information on these vital issues, the book is an essential resource for all researchers and practitioners concerned with liver and small bowel transplantation.
