Abstract
The aim of the study was to
analyze the early and late outcomes of pediatric liver transplantation
(LTx) program in the Novosibirsk region. Material and Methods. The
retrospective study included 24 patients aged 72 ± 74.8 months (from 4
to 212 months, median - 20 months) with a body weight of 21.7 ± 18.1 kg
(from 4.5 to 55 kg, median - 12.5 kg). Two (8.3 %) cadaveric whole liver
grafts, 19 (79.2 %) living donor liver grafts, and 3 (12.5 %) cadaveric
liver fragments (reduced-size or split-liver) were transplanted.
Results. The features of vascular and biliary reconstruction in
different types of LTx are discussed. The incidence of vascular and
biliary complications was 8.3 and 20.8%, respectively. The patients
stayed in the intensive care unit for 9 ± 5.1 days (from 4 to 22 days,
median 8 days) and total length of hospital stay was for 40 ± 25.4 days
(from 19 to 136 days, median 32 days). Two (8.3 %) recipients had early
graft dysfunction. Perioperative mortality (up to 90 days) was absent.
The overall 5-year patient and graft survival rates were 95 and 88 %,
respectively. Conclusion. The Novosibirsk region has a pediatric LTx
program with outcomes comparable to the data of the leading world and
Russian centers.
