Every organ procured is so valuable that it should never be discarded easily, especially a liver that could save a patient＇s life in an emergency. This leads to the use of grafts from donors with unrecognized Here and unusual diseases, including schistosomiasis. we reported a case of orthotopic liver transplantation （OLT） from a donor with Schistosorna japonicurn to a patient with end-stage cirrhosis due to HBV infection.展开更多
