Graft and Patient Survival After Liver Transplantation for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis: A French National Cohort Study
Key Points
To assess the prognosis following liver transplantation (LT) for primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and address potential improvements.
National cohort study conducted in France
Analysis of patient and graft survival rates after LT
Evaluation of cancer detection methods before and after LT
Emphasized the importance of early detection of cholangiocellular carcinoma before LT
Highlighted the need for screening colorectal cancer after LT for better patient prognosis
Abstract
Our results emphasise that the prognosis after LT for PSC could be improved by better detection of cholangiocellular carcinoma before LT, and colorectal cancer after LT.
