METHODS: Immunological markers and pathological changes in 3 patients undergoing auxiliary liver transplantation were analysed. RESULTS: The lower the concentration of immunosuppressive agent, the less the rejection and the milder the intensity in the 3 patients. The function of allograft after auxiliary liver transplantation was excellent. CONCLUSIONS: Patients are in a low immune reaction state after auxiliary liver transplantation. Auxiliary liver can protect other allografts by related immunological mechanisms. The side-effects of low-concentration immunosuppressive agents on auxiliary liver and other allografts are mild.展开更多
