Short-term clinical efficacy of liver transplantation with organs from donation after Chinese citizens’ death in patients with high model for end-stage liver disease score / 器官移植

ABSTRACT

group was significantly longer than that in the low MELD score group (P <0.05).And there was no significant difference in the length of hospital stay,mortality during hospitalization,incidence of early complications, follow-up time and overall survival rate between two groups (all in P >0.05).The peak level of aspartate aminotransferase (AST)in the high MELD score group was significantly higher compared with that in the low MELD score group (P <0.05 ).The incidence of bile leakage,abdominal abscess and liver dysfunction significantly differed between two groups (all in P <0.05 ).Conclusions It is a safe and short-term efficacious approach to perform liver transplantation with organs obtained from Chinese donation after citizens’ death in patients with high MELD score liver recipients.
