| Core Tip |
The objective of this study was to compare trends in liver transplant donor/recipient characteristics and outcomes using four period cohorts of adult, first-time whole-organ deceased donor recipients from 1990-2009 using historical data from the OPTN/UNOS database. The landscape of donors and recipients undergoing liver transplantation (LT) in the United States has changed. Donor age, body mass index, and the contribution of racial minorities have increased. Transplant recipients are older, more deconditioned and obese, and with changing causes of cirrhosis. Despite this, the long-term patient survival has improved over time. This paper provides an overview of the landscape of LT in the United States. |
