Core Tip |
For the first time, we report the rates of liver transplant and survival for patients with alcohol-induced cirrhosis who were deemed eligible for liver transplant and listed based on approval under the Ohio Solid Organ Transplantation Consortium medically urgent exception criteria. These criteria allow patients with low to medium risk of recidivism, to receive a liver transplant after only one to three months of abstinence. We showed that transplant rate and short and long term survival after transplant is comparable between these patients and United States general population of patients with alcohol-induced cirrhosis who received liver transplant. |
