Abstract
THE American Society of Transplant Physicians directed its Patient Care and Education Committee to examine the issue of racial inequality in transplantation. The committee, made up of physicians involved in clinical transplantation, used both published data and personal experience to develop a consensus on the issues and problems related to race in transplantation. This report summarizes the conclusions reached by the committee and outlines the specific recommendations made to the society.
