Abstract:
Objective To study donor liver regeneration in recipients after split liver transplantation. Methods Liver volume regeneration was assessed by CT and hepatic function review. Results The graft to standard liver volume ratio of recipient one at POD120 and POD360 was 114%,97% with liver volume regeneration ratio of -11.0%,-24.3% respectively. For recipient two it was 96%,100% and 24.4%,30.0%,respectively. The graft to standard liver volume ratio of recipient three at POD60 was 86% with a regeneration ratio of 12.0%. For recipient four at POD60 it was 90% and 20.0% respectively. The hepatic function in all recipients became normal gradually. Conclusion The transplanted donor liver after split liver transplantation has strong ability of regeneration and is capable of normal hepatic function in the recipient.
