Abstract:
BACKGROUND/AIMS:Graft reperfusion in liver transplantation is usually performed by initial portal reperfusion (IPR) and delayed rearterialization. Its influence on graft microcirculation is unknown. This study aimed to assess sinusoidal perfusion in dependence to this reperfusion technique during human living-donor liver transplantation. METHODS:Hepatic microcirculation was measured both in the donor and the recipient (n=14) by using the orthogonal polarization spectral imaging technique. By using initial portal reperfusion, the mean time interval between portal venous and hepatic arterial reperfusion was 27.7+/-13.3 min. RESULTS:Hepatic nutritive perfusion, as given by the functional sinusoidal density and the volumetric blood flow, was found significantly decreased during portal reperfusion when compared to baseline. Rearterialization resulted in hyperperfusion of individual sinusoids at a decreased density of the sinusoidal network. Interestingly, the time interval between portal venous and hepatic arterial reperfusion significantly correlated with the changes of the liver grafts' microcirculation. CONCLUSIONS:The study indicates graft microcirculatory dysfunction as a major determinant of postischemic liver injury. Moreover, microvascular impairment was significantly influenced by the interval between portal venous and hepatic arterial reperfusion, which suggests the reinforcement of the pathomechanism of injury involving hypoxia and rapid graft rewarming due to initial portal reperfusion.
