Minimal blood loss living donor hepatectomy.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Donor hepatectomy with maximal safety while preserving graft viability is of principal concern in living donor liver transplantation. There are compelling reasons for avoiding blood transfusion, even with autologous blood, to avoid the potential risks it imposes on healthy donors. This study aims to describe the surgical technique and clinical outcomes of living donor hepatectomy with minimal blood loss requiring no blood transfusion. METHODS:Donor hepatectomy was performed in 30 living donors according to a detailed preoperative imaging study of the vascular and biliary anatomy. Liver parenchymal transection was carried out with strict adherence to a meticulous surgical technique without vascular inflow occlusion to either side of the liver. Pre-, intra-, and postoperative data were gathered, and factors related to blood loss were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS:The intraoperative blood loss ranged from 20 to 300 ml with a mean of 72.0+/-58.9 ml (median, 55 ml), and neither homologous nor autologous blood transfusion was required in any of the donors intra- and postoperatively. All 30 donors were discharged with minimal complications, and remain well at a mean follow-up of 24 months after donation. Excellent graft viability was verified by the fact that all 30 recipients are alive and well with a few manageable complications. The actual graft and patient survival are both 100% at the time of writing. CONCLUSIONS:Regardless of the extent of donor hepatectomy, blood loss can and should be kept to a minimum, and living donor hepatectomy without blood transfusion is a realistic objective.
