The development of cholangiopathies after liver transplantation impacts on the quality and
duration of graft and patient survival, contributing to higher costs as numerous interventions …

Based on the continuous increase of donor risk, with a majority of organs classified as
marginal, quality assessment and prediction of liver function is of utmost importance. This is …

Background Experimental studies have suggested that end-ischaemic dual hypothermic
oxygenated machine perfusion (DHOPE) may restore hepatocellular energy status and …

Background & Aims The concept of benchmarking is established in the field of transplant
surgery; however, benchmark values for donation after circulatory death (DCD) liver …

Background & Aims Primary non-function and ischaemic cholangiopathy are the most feared
complications following donation-after-circulatory-death (DCD) liver transplantation. The aim …

Importance Expansion of donor acceptance criteria for liver transplant increased the risk for
early allograft failure (EAF), and although EAF prediction is pivotal to optimize transplant …

Background. Liver transplantation (LT) from controlled donation after circulatory death
(cDCD) was initiated in France in 2015 under a protocol based on the use of normothermic …

Increased use of high‐risk allografts is critical to meet the demand for liver transplantation.
We aimed to identify criteria predicting viability of organs, currently declined for clinical …
