Split liver transplantation.
BACKGROUND Split liver transplantation offers an attractive way to increase the number of cadaveric grafts. In the past 10 years, it has enabled clinicians to minimise paediatric waiting list mortality. Two major concepts are applied in liver splitting. The more widely accepted approach provides a left lateral and a right extended liver graft to be transplanted into one child and one adult, res...
متن کاملSplit-liver transplantation: a review.
Split-liver transplantation (SLT), a procedure where one cadaver liver is divided to provide for two recipients, offers immediate expansion of the existing cadaver donor pool. To date, the principal beneficiaries of SLT have been adult/pediatric recipient pairs with excellent outcomes reported; however, the current scarcity of cadaver organs has renewed interest in expanding these techniques to...
متن کاملSplit liver transplantation in adults
Split liver transplantation (SLT), while widely accepted in pediatrics, remains underutilized in adults. Advancements in surgical techniques and donor-recipient matching, however, have allowed expansion of SLT from utilization of the right trisegment graft to now include use of the hemiliver graft as well. Despite less favorable outcomes in the early experience, better outcomes have been report...
متن کاملSplit Tolerance Induced by Orthotopic Liver Transplantation
Spontaneous orthotopic liver allograft acceptance associated with microchimerism in mice induces tolerance to subsequent skin or heart transplants from the donor but not third-party animals. Despite in vivo hyporesponsiveneu, in vitro MLC and CTL assays showed continuing anti donor reactivity. Cells isolated from recipients' spleens and grafted livers, when tested in MLC and CTL assays, were an...
متن کاملEx vivo experimental model: split lung block technique.
Since they were first established, ex vivo models of lung reconditioning have been evaluated extensively. When rejected donor lungs are used, the great variability among the cases can hinder the progress of such studies. In order to avoid this problem, we developed a technique that consists of separating the lung block into right and left blocks and subsequently reconnecting those two blocks. T...
