RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The futility of liver transplantation in elderly recipients remains under debate in the HCV eradication era. METHODS: The aim was to assess the effect of older age on outcome after liver transplantation. We used the ELTR to study the relationship between recipient age and post-transplant outcome. Young and elderly recipients were compared using a PSM method. RESULTS: A total of 10,172 cases were analysed. Recipient age >65 years was identified as an independent risk factor associated with reduced patient survival (HR:1.42 95%CI:1.23-1.65,p < 0.001). After PSM, 2124 patients were matched, and the same association was found between elderly recipients and patient survival and graft survival (p < 0.001). As hepatocellular carcinoma and alcoholic cirrhosis were independent prognostic factors for patient and graft survival a propensity score-matching was performed for each. Patient and graft survival were significantly worse (p < 0.05) in the alcoholic cirrhosis elderly group. However, patient and graft survival in the hepatocellular carcinoma cohort were similar (p > 0.05) between groups. CONCLUSION: Liver transplantation is an acceptable and safe curative option for elderly transplant candidates, with worse long-term outcomes compare to young candidates. The underlying liver disease for liver transplantation has a significant impact on the selection of elderly patients.
