Overview

Analysis evaluates living donor liver transplantation outcomes in colorectal liver metastases, suggesting a promising alternative to traditional methods.

Key Points

  • Explore the effectiveness of living donor liver transplantation in the treatment of colorectal liver metastases.
  • Contrast outcomes of living donor and deceased donor liver transplantation
  • Examine technical and ethical considerations of both transplantation methods
  • Analyze patient selection criteria incorporating molecular profiling and liquid biopsy
  • Report on institutional case of left lobe LDLT for CRLM
  • LDLT shows potential for improved long-term survival in select patients with CRLM
  • One patient remains disease-free 30 months post-left lobe LDLT
  • Emerging data highlights advantages of LDLT over DDLT.
