  • ABOIncompatible Liver Transplantation: A Single Center Experience

    ObjectiveTo explore perioperative management model of ABO-incompatible liver transplantation. MethodsThe clinical data of ABO-incompatible caderveric liver transplantions without urgency performed in our center from July 2006 to May 2010 were analyzed retrospectively. Four patients had received an ABO-incompatible graft: AB to O in three, AB to A in one. All the cases were diagnosed as end-stage liver disese, one of them was primary hepatocellular carcinoma. ResultsFour survived to now (11 to 19 months) without severe infections and acute rejections. Two experienced coagulative disturbance and one of them had a second exploration. One developed acute renal failure and recovered with help under continuous veno-venous hemofiltration. All the cases were given 20 mg basiliximab two hours before revascularization and on day 4 after operation respectively. Splenectomy was performed in three, intravenous immunoglobulin was given in all more than seven days. Isohemagglutinin titers were basically stable and not relevant to the clinical manifestations. Antibiotic prophylaxis and immunosuppression protocol was same as the ABO compatible transplants except a 3-month-delay for steroid withdrawal. ConclusionABO-incompatible liver transplantation could be performed with appropriate perioperative management, such as basiliximab induction, splenectomy, intravenous immunoglobulin administration, and routine immunosuppression.
