Transplant Center Volume and Outcomes After Liver Retransplantation

description Liver retransplantation surgery has a high rate of allograft failure due to patient comorbidities and technical demands of the procedure. Success of liver retransplantation could depend on surgeon experience and processes of care that relate to center volume. We performed a retrospective cohort study of adult liver retransplantation procedures performed from January 1, 1996 through December 31, 2005 using registry data from the Organ Procurement Transplantation Network. The primary outcome was 1‐year allograft failure. Liver transplant centers were categorized as small, intermediate or high volume by dividing overall liver transplants into three tertiles of approximately equal size. Mean annual volume of overall liver transplants was 88 for high‐volume centers. The primary analysis consisted of 3977 liver retransplantation patients. The unadjusted risk of 1‐year allograft failure was 37.8%. In multivariable logistic regression, the risk of 1‐year allograft failure was not significantly different between low‐ (reference), intermediate‐ (OR 0.86, CI 0.72–1.03, p = 0.11) and high‐volume centers (OR 0.88, CI 0.74–1.04, p = 0.14). Results were similar when the analysis was limited to retransplantation performed >160 days after initial transplantation. Center volume is an imprecise surrogate measure for 1‐year outcomes after liver retransplantation. A retrospective review of OPTN data on 3977 retransplants found that center volume was not a major factor in outcomes.
