title: Disappearance of Kayser-Fleischer rings following liver transplantation.
abstract: 1. Four cases of Kayser-Fleischer rings of Wilson's disease were observed to disappear after liver transplantation. 2. The disappearance of Kayser-Fleischer rings was in reverse order from that in which they appear. 3. The duration of disappearance was variable. 4. The density of Kayser-Fleischer rings correlated with the duration of clinical symptoms.
