Overview

Retrospective analysis compares morbidity and mortality in liver transplant patients by Milan criteria, suggesting safe intervention beyond these limits.

Key Points

  • The study compares morbidity and mortality rates of patients undergoing liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma based on adherence to Milan criteria.
  • Retrospective analysis of 73 adult patients undergoing living donor liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma.
  • Patients stratified into Milan and Non-Milan groups based on pathological findings.
  • Evaluated demographic characteristics, MELD scores, and categorized postoperative complications using Clavien-Dindo classification.
  • Higher MELD scores (23.05 vs. 10.18) and bilirubin levels (2.59 vs. 1.05 mg/dL) were observed in the Milan group, indicating worse liver function.
  • Intraoperative parameters and hospital stay lengths were similar between the two groups.
  • No significant differences in major complications (Clavien-Dindo ≥Grade 3) were found between groups.
