| Core Tip |
Although alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is the second most common indication for liver transplantation (LT), post-transplant relapse of alcohol use can have a negative impact on patient outcomes. It is therefore important to preoperatively assess the risk of post-transplant alcohol use. To date, however, psychosocial evaluation criteria of LT for ALD have not been established, indicating a real need for useful criteria to assess the risks of post-transplant alcohol use. This study describes a set of psychosocial evaluation criteria that may be useful in assessing the risk of relapse in patients who undergo LT for ALD. |
