Expected Life Expectancy on Liver Transplantation and Aging Donor.

In this study, our aim was to show the life expectancy according to donor age groups at 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, and 20 years after liver transplant in liver transplant recipients. In this retrospective study, we analyzed the survival rate of 236 patients who had liver transplant procedures between 1988 and 2021. The 5-year life expectancy of recipients with donors over age 50 years in the literature has been shown to vary between 50% and 80%.
