Is The Institute Georges Lopez-1 Solution An Equally Effective, Cheaper Alternative To The University Of Wisconsin Solution In Liver Transplantation?
INDIAN JOURNAL OF TRANSPLANTATION(2019)
摘要
Aim: To compare the outcomes of deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT) using either the University of Wisconsin solution (UW) or the Institute Georges Lopez-1 (IGL-1) solution. Materials and Methods: Adult patients who underwent DDLT between November 2015 and March 2018 were included in the study. All patients received grafts from brain-dead donors. In 30 patients, the UW solution was used to preserve the liver and in 53 patients, the IGL-1 solution was used. The data of these two groups of the patients were analyzed and compared. Results: Between the two groups of patients, donor and recipient demographics and surgery-related variables were found to be similar. No difference was observed in the incidence of postreperfusion syndrome, number of days of hospitalization, and in the 30-day mortality. Early graft dysfunction was observed in 9 (16.98%) patients in the IGL-1 group and in 7 (23.33%) patients in the UW group (P = 0.48). One patient had primary nonfunction in each group. The postoperative levels of the liver transaminases were also not found to be significantly different. Conclusions: The efficacies of liver preservation by the IGL-1 and UW solutions were found to be comparable.
