Abstract:
:Auxiliary partial orthotopic liver transplantation (APOLT) or heterotopic auxiliary partial liver transplantation (HAPLT) was initially indicated for potentially reversible fulminant hepatic failure (FHF). We started auxiliary partial living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for FHF in February 2002. Since then, 5 FHF patients (3 females and 2 males) underwent auxiliary partial LDLT: 3 cases of APOLT and 2 cases of HAPLT. All of them received a small-for-size graft: graft-to-recipient weight ratio (GRWR) < or = 1.0%. The etiologies of FHF were hepatitis B virus (HBV) in 1, Wilson's disease in 1, and unknown origin in 3 cases. Three were the acute type and 2 the subacute type of FHF. Median age was 45 years (range, 14-54 years). Blood type was identical in all cases. A left lobe graft was used in 4 instances and a right lobe graft in 1 case. Median GRWR was 0.74 (range, 0.42-0.85). Median follow-up was 42 months (range, 3 days to 70 months). Three of 5 patients (60%) were alive (at 42, 67, and 70 months) and 1 was free of immunosuppression after sufficient recovery of the native liver. Two cases succumbed: 1 at postoperative day 3 because of cytomegalovirus pneumonia and 1 at 10 months after APOLT because of sepsis. Complications were seen in all 5 patients: Relaparotomy for hemostasis in 3, decompression surgery of the abdominal cavity in 1, rehepaticojejunostomy in 1, and biliary strictures in 2 cases. Auxiliary partial LDLT may be a choice as an aid for a small-for-size graft in FHF.
