We describe our use of a liver allograft from a donor who died of intracranial hemorrhage after brodifacoum ingestion. Because brodifacoum can remain in the human body for months, the recipient's posttransplantation coagulation profiles and serum brodifacoum levels were monitored closely. Her posttr

We report a successful living related liver transplantation from a donor with von Willebrand's disease. With proper preparation, a substantial liver resection can be performed safely in such patients, and the transplanted liver will function normally.
In Asia, various cultural, social, and historic factors have severely limited the availability of deceased donor organs. Therefore, living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) has emerged as an important therapeutic option for patients with end-stage liver disease. According to data reported to the Ko
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,
Strategies to expand the pool of available donor organs include the use of extended criteria donor livers, which also include injured allografts from donors with liver trauma. 1 Trauma currently remains a leading cause of death worldwide, and among those who sustain abdominal trauma, the liver is th
