Abstract:
Objective To study the risk factor of postoperative acute lung injury(ALI)after liver transplantation.Methods The clinical data of I00 patients with end-stage liver diseases who re- ceived liver transplantations were retrospectively reviewed.The risk factors of postoperative ALI after liver transplantation were analyzed by using single variance analysis and multiple variance regression analysis.Results Thirteen patients(13 %,13/11t0)altogether were diagnosed as ALI after liver transplantation.Binary logistic analysis revealed that massive transfusion during operation(more than 5000 ml)and severity of reperfusion injury(ALT above 600 U/L)were two independent risk factors of postoperative ALI following liver transplantation.Massive transfusion significantly increased the risk of ALI by 12.7 times,whereas the severe reperfusion significantly increased the risk of ALI by 7.0 times.Conclusions ALl is a serious multifactoral complication after liver transplantation with high mortality and fatality.Massive transfusion and the severe reperfusion injury are two independent risk factors with high morbidity and mortality.
