In 2017, we identified more than 400 peer reviewed publications on the topic of pancreas transplantation, more than 500 on intestinal transplantation, more than 4000 on renal transplantation, and more than 4700 on liver transplantation. This annual review highlights the most pertinent literature for anesthesiologists and critical care physicians caring for patients undergoing abdominal organ transplantation. We explore a wide range of topics, including risk for and prediction of perioperative complications, recommendations on perioperative management, economic analyses, and education of the trainees in abdominal transplantation anesthesia and critical care.

Are we systematically overdosing women? Revisiting standardized contrast protocols for thoracoabdominal CT scans.
Eur Radiol
January 2025
Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, University Hospital Augsburg, Augsburg, Germany.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the iodine contrast in blood and solid organs differs between men and women and to evaluate the effect of BMI, height, weight, and blood volume (BV) on sex-specific contrast in staging CT.
Materials And Methods: Patients receiving a venous-phase thoracoabdominal Photon-Counting Detector CT (PCD-CT) scan with 100- or 120-mL CM between 08/2021 and 01/2022 were retrospectively included in this single-center study. Image analysis was performed by measuring iodine contrast in the liver, portal vein, spleen, left atrium, left ventricle, pulmonary trunk, ascending and descending aorta on spectral PCD-CT datasets.
Background: Renal atrophy may reflect an end organ consequence of chronic vascular disease. Renal volume loss may therefore provide a window into brain aging and Alzheimer disease risk.
Method: We obtained whole-body 1.
Background: Comparative information on how whole-body organs are linked with age and the brain is lacking.
Method: Overall, 7,149 healthy participants from four sites (Mean age 53.06 ± 12.
