Analysis of long-term outcomes of 3200 liver transplantations over two decades: a single-center experience.

TL;DR: Long-term benefits of OLT are greatest in pediatric and nonurgent patients, and multiple factors involving the recipient, etiology of liver disease, donor characteristics, operative variables, and surgical experience influence long-term survival outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Orthotopic liver transplantation for primary sclerosing cholangitis. A 12-year single center experience.

TL;DR: Liver transplantation provides excellent patient and graft survival rates for patients affected with PSC independent of pretransplant biliary tract surgery, however, known CCA or common duct frozen section biopsy specimen or both showing CCA are associated with poor recipient survival, and OLT should be proscribed in these cases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term patient outcome and quality of life after liver transplantation: analysis of 20-year survivors.

TL;DR: Overall HRQOL was significantly better in 20-year survivors than in patients with chronic liver disease, congestive heart failure, or diabetes, and clinical factors associated with improved post-LTHRQOL were younger age at LT, allograft longevity, and strong social support.
