Could retrograde reperfusion combined with washout technique broaden the applicability of marginal grafts in liver transplantation? Intra-operative and short-term outcomes of a prospective cohort.

Introduction: many revascularization techniques were designed to reduce the imbalance of ischemia-reperfusion injury. This study's objective is to evaluate retrograde reperfusion (RR) compared to sequential anterograde reperfusion (AR), with and without the washout technique (WO).

Method: this prospective cohort study collected data from 94 deceased donor orthotopic liver transplants and divided it into three groups: RR with WO (RR+WO), AP with WO (AR+WO), and AP without WO (AR).

Combined liver-kidney transplant in polycystic diseases: a case report.

Polycystic liver disease, a hereditary pathology, usually manifests as autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. The many cysts in the liver cause massive hepatomegaly, majorly affecting the patient's quality of life. In cases of refractory symptoms, liver transplantation is the only treatment choice.

UPPER MIDLINE INCISION IN RECIPIENTS OF DECEASED-DONORS LIVER TRANSPLANTATION.

Background: Liver transplant (LT) is the only effective and long-lasting option for patients with end-stage liver disease. Innovations and refinements in surgical techniques occurred with the advent of transplants with partial grafts and laparoscopy. Despite these modifications, the abdominal incision remains with only few changes.

ANATOMIC VARIATIONS OF HEPATIC ARTERY: A STUDY IN 479 LIVER TRANSPLANTATIONS.

Background:: The incidence of anatomic variations of hepatic artery ranges from 20-50% in different series. Variations are especially important in the context of liver orthotopic transplantation, since, besides being an ideal opportunity for surgical anatomical study, their precise identification is crucial to the success of the procedure.

Aim:: To identify the anatomical variations in the hepatic arterial system in hepatic transplantation.
