Abstract:
Objective To review the recent advances in the use of marginal liver in liver transplantation. Methods The literatures of recent years on the use of marginal liver for liver transplantation were reviewed and summarized. Results The donors with older age, hemodynamic instability, long stay in the intensive care unit and fatty liver are significantly clinical marginal liver donors. Conclusion Though the use of marginal liver donors negatively influences the results of liver transplantation, marginal liver expands the liver source for liver transplantation with a good result.
