TL;DR: Hypothermic machine perfusion was associated with a reduced risk of delayed graft function and improved graft survival in the first year after transplantation.

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that high‐viscosity (HV) preservation solutions in the donor do not completely flush the small donor peribiliary plexus, leading to inadequate preservation of the bile ducts and posttransplant BSs, and mixed preservation solution might protect against BS formation while providing optimal liver graft preservation, function, and survival despite a mean CIT longer than 10 hours.

TL;DR: The long‐term follow-up data are reported of a prospective pilot study designed to determine whether liver transplantation could be performed with no steroids at all (neither during nor after surgery).

TL;DR: In this article, six liver transplant patients were selected to participate in a trek up Mount Kilimanjaro 5895m, Tanzania, and compared with fifteen control subjects with similar profiles and matched for age and body mass index.

TL;DR: Surgical, medical and immunological aspects of combined liver‐pancreas transplantation are discussed in the light of the existing relevant literature and two patients suffering from both liver disease and Type 1 diabetes are reported.
