Core Tip	An important solution for increasing the donor pool is the use of octogenarian livers after careful selection. We present a comparative study between a group of 102 recipients of donors ≤ 65 years, and 51 recipients of donors ≥ 80 years. One, 3 and 5-year overall patient survival was 87.3%, 84% and 75.2%, respectively, in recipients of younger grafts vs 88.2%, 84.1% and 66.4%, respectively, in recipients of octogenarian grafts (P = 0.748). One, 3 and 5-year overall graft survival was 84.3%, 83.1% and 74.2%, respectively, in recipients of younger grafts vs 84.3%, 79.4% and 64.2%, respectively, in recipients of octogenarian grafts (P = 0.524). With good selection octogenarian livers can be safely used.
