Adult left lobe living donor liver transplantation has long been practiced nearly exclusively in Japan. To overcome the potential risks of small-for-size syndrome and hepatic venous outflow obstruction associated with the use of left lobe grafts, center-specific countermeasures such as splenectomy, meticulous hepatic venous reconstruction, and inclusion of the caudate lobe have been implemented, resulting in short- and long-term results comparable with those of right lobe graft in high-volume centers. A recent systematic review and meta-analysis confirmed these observations; however, the indications and techniques of adult left lobe living donor liver transplantation have yet to be standardized.

Department of Paediatrics, RCSI University of Medicine & Health Sciences, Dublin 2, Ireland.
Aim: This study hypothesised that infants with a haemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) as defined by a validated score have a higher incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI).
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted including infants < 29 weeks' gestation, born at the Rotunda Hospital. The El-Khuffash patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) severity score was applied following an echocardiographic assessment.

Introduction: The present study aimed to assess the clinical outcomes of pediatric heart transplant patients whose donor hearts were preserved with the SherpaPakCardiac Transport System.
Methods: All pediatric patients undergoing heart transplantation at our center between January 2020 and June 2024 were included and described. Vasoactive inotropic score (VIS) was calculated.

Chromosomal rearrangements involving the Mixed Lineage Leukemia gene (MLL1, KMT2A) are defining a genetically distinct subset in about 10% of human acute leukemias. Translocations involving the KMT2A-locus at chromosome 11q23 are resulting in the formation of a chimeric oncogene, where the N-terminal part of KMT2A is fused to a variety of translocation partners. The most frequently found fusion partners of KMT2A in acute leukemia are the C-terminal parts of AFF1, MLLT3, MLLT1 and MLLT10.

Objective: Gonadal dysfunction is a major late complication after cancer diagnosis and treatment. We aimed to study the prevalence of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and the potential reduction of ovarian reserve in a cohort of adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients undergoing cancer treatments, evaluating ovarian function and reserve markers. We also aimed to analyze how these markers are related to each other and to treatment-related risk factors.
