Yüksek MELD-Na Skoru ile Canlı Donörden Karaciğer Transplantasyonu Planlanan Hastalarda Erken Dönem Sonuçlarımız: Tek Merkez Deneyimi

Amaç: Canlı donör karaciğer transplantasyonu (CDKT), yeterli sayıda kadavra organ donörü olmaması nedeni ile daha sık yapılabilmektedir. Kadavra organ sayısının yeterli olmadığı durumlarda bekleme listesinde MELD-Na skoru yüksek olan hastalar öne çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışmada CDKT’de, yüksek MELD-Na skorunun erken postoperatif sonuçlar üzerine etkisi araştırıldı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmamızda Ocak 2015-Aralık 2021 tarihleri arasında MELD-Na skoru ≥25 olan erişkin hastalar retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Hazırlık döneminde uygulanan tedavilerden sonra hesaplanan preoperatif MELD-Na skoruna göre hastalar

Living Donor Liver Transplantation Early Period Outcomes with the High MELD-Na Scores: Single Center Experience

Objectives: Living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) can be performed more frequently due to insufficient cadaver organ donation. In cases where the number of cadaveric organ is not sufficient patients with high MELD-Na score stand out during waiting. In this study, the effect of high MELD- Na score on early postoperative outcome was investigated in LDLT. Materials and Methods: In our study, adult patients with a MELD-Na score of ≥25 between January 2015 and December 2021 were evaluated retrospectively. According to the preoperative MELD-Na score calculated after the treatments applied during the preparation period, the patients were divided into two groups as
