Thanks for the #Tweetorial @BRocqueMD ! To start the conversation, what are other centers doing for pediatric surveillance biopsies?

Replying to @ILTSJC
@ILTSJC The most common complication after pediatric LT is T-cell mediated rejection (TCMR, up to 50%!). Immunosuppression needs are highly individualized – some patients can achieve operational tolerance 🥳, and some suffer repeated rejection episodes 😣

Overall, it looked to us that SBs are clinically useful and safe. There may be a survival benefit and we think it is because non-invasive tests perform so poorly in LT and that SBs allow for accurate individualized tailoring of immunosuppression for each patient.

Thanks for following along and to @ILTSJC and also @LTxJournal for featuring our work. If your institution performs pediatric liver transplants, is there a standardized surveillance strategy? #ILTSJC #ILTS
