Recurrence of hepatitis C after liver transplantation
Recurrence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection following liver transplantation is a major source of morbidity and mortality. The natural history of hepatitis C in the transplant setting is shortened. Overall, one third of HCV-infected recipients have developed allograft cirrhosis due to HCV recurrence by the 5th-7th year post-transplantation. The most significant variables which determine dise...
متن کاملRecurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after liver transplantation.
Outcome after liver transplantation (OLT) clearly depends on recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). After recurrence, patient outcome will depend on the time and site of appearance. The aim of this study was to analyze the therapeutic implications of tumor recurrence behavior. From October 1988 to December 2005, 685 patients received OLT, including 202 due to HCC (32%). We analyzed 28 re...
متن کاملAlveolar echinococcosis of the liver: MR findings.
Nineteen cases of proven hepatic alveolar echinococcosis were examined by magnetic resonance (MR) and the results were compared with CT. Fibrous and parasitic tissue showed low signal both on T1- and, generally, on T2-weighted images. In a few cases a high signal on T2-weighted images may be observed, due either to central necrotic zones or to small peripheral cysts. Central necrosis was more e...
