Overview
Liver transplantation techniques
Left lobe transplantation
- The left and middle hepatic veins, left hepatic artery, and left portal vein are dissected.[1]
- Small portal vein branches are ligated. The left bile duct is divided
- Vascular and biliary structures entering segment 4 are divided or left intact.
- The parenchyma is transected and then the left hepatic artery and left portal vein are divided, releasing the graft.
- The middle hepatic vein is removed with the graft when a full lobectomy is performed.
Right lobe transplantation
- The right lobe fits correctly into the right subphrenic space, making the vascular anastomoses easier to perform.[2]
- Right lobe grafts are prone to a variety of technical complications.
- After cholecystectomy, intraoperative ultrasound may be used to delineate the position of the hepatic veins and portal branches.
- The right hepatic artery and right portal vein are dissected, followed by the retrohepatic vena cava, isolating the origin of the right hepatic vein.
- The right bile duct is isolated, completing mobilization of the right lobe.[3]
- The liver parenchyma is transected using an ultrasonic scalpel.
- A portoportal anastomosis is then made between the donor right portal vein and the portal vein of the recipient.
Split-liver transplantation
- Splitting donor livers into left lateral and extended right grafts for transplantation into a pediatric and an adult recipient.[4]
- Splitting livers into right and left lobes for transplantation has been investigated as a way to increase the supply of donor organs.
- Approximately 20 percent of donors could be split.
- Five-year survival rates were 77 percent, with graft survival rates of 76 percent.
- For children, 5-year survival rates were 75 percent, with graft survival rates of 63 percent.
MARGINAL LIVER GRAFT OUTCOMES
Marginal liver grafts included those with any of the following characteristics:[5]
- Liver donor age >70 years
- Livers discarded regionally and shared nationally
- Livers from hepatitis C positive donors
- Livers with cold ischemia time >12 hours
- Livers from donation after cardiac death donors
- Livers with >30 percent steatosis
- Livers split between two recipients
