Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, graft options for pediatric liver transplantation (PLT) include whole (WL) and partial (P) grafts, in the form of either deceased donor transplantation (DD) or living donor liver transplantation (LD). WL transplants from LD are commonly referred to as domino LT. The objective of this manuscript is to compare the outcomes of PLT performed with each of the available graft options. METHODS Retrospective cohort study from Jan. 2010 to Dec. 2022. The variables included data on the recipients' preoperative clinical status, intraoperative technical aspects, post-operative complications, and survival studies. There were 4 groups: SPLIT (17), DD-WL (55), LD-WL (824), and LD-P (22). RESULTS The median age and BW of the recipients was smaller in SPLIT, LD-P, and LD-WL compared to DDT-WL groups. HVOO (HR 15.87, 95% CI 1.89-133.06, P = 0.01), retransplantation (HR 7.94, 95% CI 2.63-24.02, P < 0.01), and malignancies (HR 3.08, 95% CI 1.29-7.37, P = 0.01) were independently associated with decreased patient survival. HAT (HR 27.54, 95% CI 10.44-72.68, P < 0.01) and malignancies (HR 2.42, 95% CI 1.10-5.34, P = 0.03) increased the risk of graft loss. The overall survival in this series was 91.4% (mean follow-up of 74.3 months). Patient and graft survival were not different among groups. CONCLUSION HAT and malignancies were associated with reduced graft survival. Whole liver from living donors with MSUD presented 100% patient survival at 120 months. Even without statistical differences in survival among the studied groups, LD-P and LD-WL recipients presented a trend towards better outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE LEVEL III.
