Temporal Changes and Regional Variation in Acceptance of Hepatitis C Virus–Viremic Livers

Rafal D. Mazur, David S. Goldberg – 20 September 2019 – The high efficacy of current hepatitis C virus (HCV) therapy and increased numbers of HCV‐infected deceased donors have changed the paradigm of HCV in liver transplantation (LT). Modeling studies have been performed to evaluate the optimal timing of HCV treatment (before versus after LT) in HCV‐infected patients and to assess the cost‐effectiveness of transplanting HCV‐infected livers into HCV− patients.

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.
