Intraoperative Events in Liver Transplantation Using Donation After Circulatory Death Donors
Ryan M. Chadha, Kristopher P. Croome, Stephen Aniskevich, Sher‐Lu Pai, Justin Nguyen, Justin Burns, Dana Perry, C. Burcin Taner – 20 September 2019 – Liver grafts from donation after circulatory death (DCD) are a source of organs to decrease wait‐list mortality. While there have been lower rates of graft loss, there are concerns of an increased incidence of intraoperative events in recipients of DCD grafts. We aim to look at the incidence of intraoperative events between recipients of livers from DCD and donation after brain death (DBD) donors.
