| Core Tip |
Paediatrics liver transplantation is primarily dependent on graft availability. Currently there is a gap between is the available grafts and number of children on transplant waiting list resulting in graft shortage. Grafts from obese donors has the risk of hepatic steatosis which could negatively impact transplantation outcomes. Donor obesity should not substitute steatosis work-up as the latter is viewed as independent predictor of graft dysfunction. New strategies to optimize grafts before transplantation might within limits mitigate the risk of using grafts from obese donors. |
