Journal ArticleDOI
Hepatocyte transplantation as a bridge to orthotopic liver transplantation in terminal liver failure.
Stephen C. Strom,Robert A. Fisher,Melissa T. Thompson,Arun J. Sanyal,Patricia E. Cole,John M. Ham,Marc P. Posner +6 more
TL;DR: In conclusion, splenic transplantation of differentiated adult hepatocytes can control hyper-ammonemia, correct genetic defects in liver function, and bridge life to orthotopic liver transplantation in human liver failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Right lobe living donor liver transplantation.
Amadeo Marcos,Robert A. Fisher,John M. Ham,Mitchell L. Shiffman,Arun J. Sanyal,Velimir A. Luketic,Richard K. Sterling,Marc P. Posner +7 more
TL;DR: Living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is currently performed at about 30 centers in the United States and recipient survival after adult LDLT in theUnited States is approximately 88%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Liver regeneration and function in donor and recipient after right lobe adult to adult living donor liver transplantation
Amadeo Marcos,Robert A. Fisher,John M. Ham,Mitchell L. Shiffman,Arun J. Sanyal,Velimir A. Luketic,Richard K. Sterling,Ann S. Fulcher,Marc P. Posner +8 more
TL;DR: MRI accurately determines right lobe mass, and most liver regeneration occurs in the 1st week after resection or transplantation, and the time course does not differ significantly in donors or recipients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complications of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt: a comprehensive review.
Arthur M. Freedman,Arun J. Sanyal,J. Tisnado,P E Cole,Mitchell L. Shiffman,Velimir A. Luketic,P. P. Purdum,M D Darcy,Marc P. Posner +8 more
TL;DR: It is generally accepted that the transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) procedure has lower morbidity and mortality rates than those of surgical shunting, but complications occur and the role to which TIPS is relegated will be influenced by the long-term success rate in the prevention of recurrent variceal hemorrhage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selection and outcome of living donors for adult to adult right lobe transplantation.
Amadeo Marcos,Robert A. Fisher,John M. Ham,Ann T. Olzinski,Mitchell L. Shiffman,Arun J. Sanyal,Velimir A. Luketic,Richard K. Sterling,Mary E. Olbrisch,Marc P. Posner +9 more
TL;DR: Donor selection limits the application of living donor liver transplantation in the adult population, and genetically unrelated individuals increase the size of the donor pool.
