Abstract:
Objective To observe the survival time, pathological change and liver regeneration in different kinds of reduced size liver transplantation in steatotic rats. Methods Rat models of different kinds of reduced size orthotopic liver transplantation were performed by modified two cuff vascular anastomoses and end to end suture for bile duct to observe the recipient body weight, graft weight, recipient original liver weight, histological and pathological and electron microscopic findings in comparison with those of the whole rat liver transplantation. Results One week survival rate of the whole liver transplantation, 70% reduced size liver transplantation(ROLT), 60% ROLT and 50% ROLT group (grade Ⅰsteatotic donor) was 91.67%, 75%, 75% and 25%, respectively, and 2 week survival rate was 83.33%, 75%, 58.33% and 0, respectively. In grade Ⅱ steatotic donor, 1 week survival rate of the whole liver transplantation and 70% ROLT was 83.33% and 25%. As to donor livers with microvesicular steatosis, 1 week survival rate of the whole liver, 70% ROLT, 60%ROLT and 50% ROLT was 83.33%, 75%, 75% and 33.33% and the 2 week survival rate was 75%, 66.67% 66.67% and 0. The survival rates of 50% ROLT in grade Ⅰ steatotic donor and livers mainly with microvesicular steatosis were significantly different from those in other groups. The 1 week survival rate of 70% ROLT was very poor in steatotic donors in grade Ⅱ. Pathological findings after operation included liver regeneration and mild lymphocyte infiltration in portal space, the amelioration of the steatosis in some cases and dilation of the central vein and sinusoids. Conclusion To obtain long term survival of reduced size liver transplantation using steatotic donors, the GRBW should be over (2.28?0.12)(the ratio of graft to recipient liver weight over 60%). Steatotic livers in grade Ⅱ should not be used as donors in ROLT. The steatosis can be ameliorated after operation.
