pubmed:abstractText |
The beneficial effect of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matching on long-term prognosis in penetrating keratoplasty is now unequivocal but has to be weighed against the additional waiting period on an individual basis. HLAMatchmaker is a molecularly based algorithm for histocompatibility determination that can identify immunologically acceptable mismatches and thus potentially reduce time on the waiting list dramatically without negatively affecting prognosis.
