Annals of Surgery<\/em><\/p>\n Blood Salvage and Autotransfusion Does Not Increase the Risk of Tumor Recurrence After Liver Transplantation for Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma<\/strong><\/p>\n Previous studies have consistently demonstrated the safety of autotransfusion of salvaged and leukoreduced blood during liver transplantation for HCC. However, the effects of this technique remained unknown for advanced HCC.

Clinical and surgical postoperative complications related to perioperative blood transfusion are well described up to three months after adult liver transplantation.

Ischemia and reperfusion (I\/R) injury is one of the unavoidable complications\/conditions in OLT.

The role of infectious disease (ID) events in this less favorable outcome is unknown.

We investigated whether graft ischemic injury impairs the accumulation of (anti)coagulation factors during NMP of porcine and human livers.

At our center, in presence of considerable DRSM, objective assessment of the donor liver by a radiology or intraoperative evaluation by procuring surgeon was incorporated.

Hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion of livers may reduce the incidence of biliary complications, but data from prospective, controlled studies are limited.
