Core Tip Due to organ shortage and epidemiological developments, the number of older potential orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) recipients increased greatly over the last decades. In order to identify predictors for long-term survival after liver transplantation, we analysed all adult, first OLTs performed at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf between 1997 and 1999 and compared these findings with the Eurotransplant database. Our study shows that recipient’s age and body mass index as well as hepatitis B as underlying disease are predictors of long-term survival after OLT.
