The case involves a one-year-old male with a mesenchymal hamartoma involving the right hepatic lobe. The tumor-free segments comprised 17% of the liver volume, which placed the patient at risk for post-resection liver failure. A staged approach, the associating liver partition with portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy, was employed. This allowed the interval growth of the liver remnant and thereafter enabled right lobectomy with adequate liver function.

Background: This study aims to analyze the patient characteristics, clinical outcomes, and contemporary trends concerning type A aortic dissection (TAAD) in previous recipients of abdominal solid organ transplantation (ASOT) in the United States.
Methods: The National Inpatient Sample was queried to identify all patients aged ≥18 with TAAD and a history of ASOT (TAAD-ASOT) between 2002 and 2015Q3 using ICD-9 diagnosis and procedure codes. Baseline characteristics and in-hospital outcomes were compared between TAAD-ASOT patients and TAAD patients without a history of ASOT (TAAD-non-ASOT).

Background: To evaluate the disease burden, risk of complications and mortality in children with viral detection during the peri-liver transplant period.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted between January 2020 and December 2023 at a tertiary university hospital. Children who underwent multiplex polymerase chain reaction testing from 7 days before to 14 days after liver transplantation were included.

Background And Aims: The severe alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) genotype Pi*ZZ increases the risk of liver disease (AATD-LD) and lung disease. While non-invasive tests (NITs) are widely used for fibrosis stage and monitoring of all liver diseases, the consensus for use in AATD-LD is limited. A Delphi panel study was conducted to address this need.

Introduction: Most epidemiological studies have found antibiotics to be the most common cause of drug-induced liver injury (DILI). It is unclear what the risk of DILI is associated with different antibiotics.
Objective: The aim of the study was to assess the frequency of DILI due to the most commonly used antibiotics among inpatients, in a population-based setting.
