By asking whether we should perform deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT) after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) has failed, we appear to be questioning the generally accepted current practice of retransplantation for transplant failure. However, we will also consider in this analysis
Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) is a progressive, debilitating complication of end-stage liver disease. In contrast to the well-established reversal of HPS after deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT), little has been written about the natural course of HPS after the newer procedure of living do
Several studies have reported higher rates of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) versus deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT). It is unclear whether this difference is due to a specific biological effect unique to the LDLT procedure or to o
The demographics of patients in the United States who undergo living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) versus patients who undergo deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT) are interesting with respect to the demographics of the donor service areas (DSAs). We examined adult recipients of primary,
