Combined Liver-Intestine Grafts Compared With Isolated Intestinal Transplantation in Children: A Single-Center Experience

Intestinal transplantation is known to be associated with a high risk of early complications and mortality. We analyzed prospective data of 51 primary small bowel transplantations from December 1999 to August 2009 and identified perioperative factors that impact on early mortality (≤6 months after t...

Zusammenfassung:Intestinal transplantation is known to be associated with a high risk of early complications and mortality. We analyzed prospective data of 51 primary small bowel transplantations from December 1999 to August 2009 and identified perioperative factors that impact on early mortality (≤6 months after transplantation) after isolated intestinal (IITx; n=12) and combined liver-intestinal transplantation (CLITx group; n=39). Ten patients died during the first 6 months after transplantation, all of them in CLITx group (n=10/51, 19%). Multivariate analyses demonstrated intraoperative red blood cell transfusion greater than 70 mL/kg (P=0.019, odds ratio [OR]=13.79) and base excess 30-min after reperfusion less than -16 (P=0.001, OR=14.05), thrombocytopenia (
