Sirolimus Use in Liver Transplant Recipients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Randomized, Multicenter, Open-Label Phase 3 Trial

Edward K. Geissler, +68 more
- 01 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: This trial provides the first high-level evidence base for selecting immunosuppression in LTx recipients with HCC and reveals that low-risk, rather than high- risk, patients benefited most from sirolimus; furthermore, younger recipients (age ⩽60) also benefited, as well siro Limus monotherapy patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anastomotic biliary strictures after liver transplantation: Causes and consequences

TL;DR: Graft and patient survival were not impaired by AS, and patients presenting more than 6 months after transplantation needed more episodes of stenting by ERCP, and more stents per episode compared to those presenting within 6 months and recurred more often.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alternative Fistula Risk Score for Pancreatoduodenectomy (a-FRS): Design and International External Validation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed an alternative fistula risk score (a-FRS) for postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreatoduodenectomy, without blood loss as a predictor.
Journal ArticleDOI

A prospective randomised, open-labeled, trial comparing sirolimus-containing versus mTOR-inhibitor-free immunosuppression in patients undergoing liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma

Andreas A. Schnitzbauer, +52 more
- 11 May 2010 - 
TL;DR: If the hypothesis is correct that mTOR inhibition can reduce HCC tumour growth while simultaneously providing immunosuppression to protect the liver allograft from rejection, patients should experience less post-transplant problems with HCC recurrence, and therefore could expect a longer and better quality of life.
