Severely steatotic grafts can be safely used for LT if cold ischemia time can be kept short. However, our experience suggests that those grafts, even if transplanted into patients with nondecompensated cirrhosis, are burdened with an extremely high rate of initial poor function and therefore are in need of treatments with novel recondi- tioning techniques capable of improving their early functional recovery after LT.

Abstract
Severely steatotic grafts can be safely used for LT if cold ischemia time can be kept short. However, our experience suggests that those grafts, even if transplanted into patients with nondecompensated cirrhosis, are burdened with an extremely high rate of initial poor function and therefore are in need of treatments with novel recondi- tioning techniques capable of improving their early functional recovery after LT.File in questo prodotto:
