Core Tip We aimed to compare the prevalence of chronic renal dysfunction (CRD) according to serum creatinine (sCr) vs that based on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) among maintenance liver transplant patients. According to eGFR assessment, after seven years of post-transplant follow-up, half of patients have CRD, suggesting that the occurrence of renal dysfunction is significantly under-estimated by sCr assessment in routine practice. The study outlines the importance of early CRD detection using more sensitive tools. In this sense, eGFR at 3-mo post-transplantation provides a powerful independent predictive factor for the development of CRD in liver transplant recipients.
