Abstract:
:One hundred six liver biopsy specimens from 34 orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) patients were examined and the histologic findings correlated with the clinical course of the patients to determine if specific morphologic patterns were associated with specific causes of acute allograft dysfunction. The principle causes of allograft injury in these patients appeared to be acute rejection and ischemic injury, with rarer cases of viral infection and biliary obstruction. Graft rejection causing transient liver dysfunction was associated with a mixed inflammatory infiltrate in the portal tracts and involving the interlobular bile ducts. Rejection resulting in severe, persistent dysfunction was associated with destruction and loss of the interlobular bile ducts or portal inflammation, followed by acute centrilobular hepatocyte necrosis. Ischemic liver injury was characterized by hepatocyte ballooning and/or hepatocyte necrosis. Ischemic injury causing transient graft dysfunction demonstrated focal, limited areas of hepatocyte necrosis or transient centrilobular hepatocyte ballooning. Severe ischemic injury resulting in persistent dysfunction caused diffuse hepatocyte necrosis or centrilobular ballooning followed by centrilobular hepatocyte loss and severe cholestasis with evidence of bile duct epithelial injury. The histologic patterns observed were not pathognomonic; radiologic studies, bile cultures, and other laboratory tests were necessary to rule out biliary or vascular obstruction and bacterial cholangitis. However, liver biopsies, especially serial biopsies, were helpful in suggesting the probable cause of liver dysfunction and in predicting subsequent allograft recovery or failure.
