ABSTRACT

5 cases of orthotopic live transplantation (OLTX) were performed in unresectable hepatic cellular carcinoma(3),Wilson's disease(1)and hepatitis B(1).The donor livers were harvested by the technique of rapid multiple organ harvesting,flushed and preserved with UW solution.The veno-venous bypass was introduced during the anhepatic phase in the operation.The double or triple-drug immunosuppressive regimen was used and three episodes of acute rejection were controlled in two patients.One patient died of CMV infection and another,of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage on the 92nd and 58th postoperative day respectively.The other three are still alive for 35,150 and 210 days.
