Abstract
Although pancreas transplantation is increasingly being performed in an effort to provide type 1 diabetic patients with the possibility of an insulin-injection–free existence, islet transplantation is potentially less invasive. This review discusses pancreatic islet-cell transplantation as an evolving procedure.This publication has 94 references indexed in Scilit:
