Abstract: This work assesses the anatomical and infectious problems of heteroplastic transplantation from a baboon to a man. The study was carried out with 30 baboons of the primatology laboratory of the CNRS. The aspects studied included the anatomic structure and the biology of the liver, the microbial and parasitic population, and the serological features. Out of these 30 animals, 8 were selected as potential donors.
