ABSTRACT:
The present invention is within the field of transplantation surgery. More closely, the present invention relates to use of a clotting preventing agent in the production of a drug for administration in association with transplantation of insulin producing cells in the form of isolated islets to patients with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, IDDM. The invention is expected to significantly improve the clinical outcome of transplantation of islets of Langerhans.
