Coronary artery disease (CAD) is associated with poor outcomes after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). We report on six high-risk end-stage liver disease (ESLD) patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with bare metal stents during the preoperative evaluation process. There was no mortality or major adverse cardiac event (MACE) within 90 days of OLT.
