To date, little is known about the duration and effectiveness of immunity as well as possible adverse late effects after an infection with SARS-CoV-2. Thus it is unclear, when and if liver transplantation can be safely offered to patients who suffered from COVID-19. Here, we report on a successful liver transplantation shortly after convalescence f...

COVID-19 has profoundly affected the American health care system; its effect on the liver transplant (LT) waitlist based on COVID-19 incidence has not been characterized. Using SRTR data, we compared observed LT waitlist registrations, waitlist mortality, deceased donor LTs (DDLT), and living donor LTs (LDLT) 3/15/2020-8/31/2020 to expected values ...

SARS-CoV2, first described in December 2019, was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. Various surgical and medical societies promptly published guidelines, based on expert opinion, on managing patients with COVID-19, with a consensus to postpone elective surgeries and procedures. We describe the case of an orthotopic ...

Given the potentially additive risk from using donor livers that are both steatotic and from a donation after circulatory death (DCD) donor, there is a paucity of data on the outcome of DCD liver transplantation (LT) utilizing livers with macrosteatosis. All DCD LT performed at Mayo Clinic-Florida, Mayo Clinic-Arizona, and Mayo Clinic-Rochester fro...

The aim of this study was to produce a prognostic model to help predict posttransplant survival in patients transplanted with grade-3 acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF-3). Patients with ACLF-3 who underwent liver transplantation (LT) between 2007 and 2017 in 5 transplant centers were included (n = 152). Predictors of 1-year mortality were retros...

We investigated metabolic changes during brain death (BD) using hyperpolarized magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy and ex vivo graft glucose metabolism during normothermic isolated perfused kidney (IPK) machine perfusion. BD was induced in mechanically ventilated rats by inflation of an epidurally placed catheter; sham-operated rats served as cont...

Severe aortic stenosis is a widespread valve disease, constituting a contraindication to organ transplantation due to cardiovascular morbidity and projected mortality. Mortality after conventional surgical aortic valve replacement in cirrhotic patients depends upon the Child-Pugh class. In the past few years, transcatheter aortic valve replacement ...

Transplant centers coordinate complex care in acute liver failure (ALF), for which liver transplant (LT) can be lifesaving. We studied associations between waitlist outcomes and center (1) ALF waitlist volume (low:

Literature on living nondirected liver donation is sparse. The purpose of this study was to assess health-related quality of life (HR-QOL) in anonymous nondirected living liver donors (ND-LLDs). ND-LLDs at 3 centers: University of Alberta (n = 12), University of Colorado (n = 12), and University of Southern California (n = 12), were surveyed. Thirt...
