Uncontrolled bleeding during surgery is associated with high mortality and prolonged hospital stay, necessitating the use of hemostatic agents. Fibrin sealant patches offer an efficient solution to achieve hemostasis and improve patient outcomes in liver resection surgery. We have previously demonstrated the efficacy of a nanostructured fibrin-agarose hydrogel (NFAH).

Sex inequities in liver transplantation (LT) have been documented in several, mostly US-based, studies. Our aim was to describe sex-related differences in access to LT in a system with short waiting times. All adult patients registered in the RETH-Spanish Liver Transplant Registry (2000-2022) for LT were included.

- * Conducted between June 2019 and August 2020, the retrospective analysis involved 40 hospitals, with insights derived from over 2,200 liver surgeries, including 1350 for colorectal metastases, of which 150 utilized the liver-first strategy.
- * Findings revealed no significant differences in surgical outcomes between hospitals performing fewer than 50 versus those performing 50 or more liver surgeries per year, prompting further research into optimal candidate selection for this treatment approach.
Background And Aims: Management of Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) has improved over the last decades. The main aim was to evaluate the contemporary post-liver transplant (post-LT) outcomes in Europe.
Approach And Results: Data from all patients who underwent transplantation from 1976 to 2020 was obtained from the European Liver Transplant Registry (ELTR).
