Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of liver transplantation from organ donors in elderly patients.Methods:The clinical data of 346 patients who underwent liver transplantation in the general surgery center of Beijing You′an Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2018 to November 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. After screening, they were divided into the elderly donor group (30 cases) aged 60-70 years and the non elderly donor group (60 cases) aged < 60 years. The observation indexes were operation time, anhepatic phase time and operation bleeding. The prognosis indexes were: postoperative ICU stay, length of hospital stay, primary graft nonfunction (PNF), delayed graft function recovery (DGF) and in-hospital mortality. The measurement data in accordance with normal distribution are expressed as ( Mean± SD). The comparison between the two groups was analyzed by t-test. The measurement data that did not conform to the normal distribution were expressed as median (range). Mann Whitney U test was used for comparison between the two groups. The counting data were collected by the computer χ2 test or Fisher′s exact test analysis. Results:The operation time, anhepatic period and blood loss in the elderly group were (444.33±72.44) min, 56.0 (30-170) min, 1 992.1(400-9 000) mL, respectively and the non elderly group were (460.88±91.32) min, 58.45 (35-140) min, 1 885.8(400-12 000) mL, respectively, there were no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05); Among the prognostic indicators, the length of stay in ICU, the length of stay in hospital and the in-hospital mortality of the elderly group were 4.9 (2-21) d, 20.4 (3-40) d and 10% respectively, while the length of stay in ICU, the length of stay in hospital and the in-hospital mortality of the non elderly group were 5.3(1-32) d, 22.1(3-61) d and 10% respectively, with no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05); No PNF occurred in the two groups, but the incidence rate of DGF in the elderly group was 13.33%(4/30), and the non elderly group was 1.67%(1/60). There was a significant difference between the two groups ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Under strict preoperative donor evaluation and accurate recipient selection, 60-70 years old donors can achieve similar short-term effect as non elderly donors, but the long-term effect needs further observation.
