Liver transplantation in patients aged 65 and over: a case-control study.

abstract：:From December 1999 to January 2002, 50 right lobe living donor liver transplantations were performed. The donor operations included an intraoperative cholangiography to elicit variations in bile duct anatomy. The biliary reconstruction was done whenever possible as an end-to-end microanastomosis of the donor right hep...
