RESUMEN

Objective: to determine the outcome of living-donor liver transplant [LDLT] donors from the first liver transplant program in Pakistan


Study Design: cohort study


Place and Duration of Study: shifa International Hospital, Islamabad, from April 2012 to August 2014


Methodology: a total of 100 live donors who underwent hepatectomy were included. Demographics, etiologies, graft characteristics and operative variables were retrospectively assessed. Outcome was assessed based on morbidity and mortality


Results: median donor age was 28 [17 - 45] years and median body mass index [BMI] was 24 kg/m[2] [15 - 36]. Male to female ratio was 1.5:1. Hepatitis B and C were the most common underlying etiologies and accounted for 79/100 [79%] of LDLT's. Overall, 93/100 [93%] donors donated a right lobe graft. Median estimated graft weight to recipient body weight [GW/BW] ratio was 1.03 [0.78 - 2]. Standard arterial anatomy was present in 56% donors. The 90-day morbidity was 13/100 [13%] and overall morbidity was 17/100 [17%]. Bile leak was encountered in 3 [3%] patients. There was no donor Mortality


Conclusion: acceptable short-term donor outcomes were achieved in an LDLT program in Pakistan with careful donor selection and planning
