Impact of aberrant left hepatic artery ligation on the outcome of liver transplantation

Roberto Montalti, Andrea Benedetti Cacciaguerra, Daniele Nicolini, Emad Alì Ahmed, Martina Coletta, Lesley De Pietri, Andrea Risaliti, Roberto Ivan Troisi, Federico Mocchegiani, Marco Vivarelli – 6 December 2017 – The preservation of a graft's aberrant left hepatic artery (LHA) during liver transplantation (LT) ensures optimal vascularization of the left liver but can also be considered a risk factor for hepatic artery thrombosis (HAT). In contrast, ligation of an aberrant LHA may lead to hepatic ischemia with the potential risk of graft dysfunction and biliary complications.

Decellularized human placenta supports hepatic tissue and allows rescue in acute liver failure

Zurab Kakabadze, Ann Kakabadze, David Chakhunashvili, Lia Karalashvili, Ekaterine Berishvili, Yogeshwar Sharma, Sanjeev Gupta – 6 December 2017 – Tissue engineering with scaffolds to form transplantable organs is of wide interest. Decellularized tissues have been tested for this purpose, although supplies of healthy donor tissues, vascular recellularization for perfusion, and tissue homeostasis in engineered organs pose challenges. We hypothesized that decellularized human placenta will be suitable for tissue engineering.
