In this retrospective study of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected transplant recipients in the 9-center Adult to Adult Living Donor Liver Transplantation Cohort Study, graft and patient survival and the development of advanced fibrosis were compared among 181 living donor liver transplant (LDLT) recip
The question of possible earlier and more aggressive recurrence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) compared to deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT) remains unanswered. To address this issue we retrospectively reviewed virological, histological
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) recurs in nearly all patients after liver transplantation. This recurrence is associated with progressive fibrosis and graft loss. It remains unclear whether the natural course of HCV recurrence is altered in patients who undergo living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). We
