Key Words Transthyretin; Familial amyloid neuropathy; Domino liver transplantation; Systemic amyloidosis; Acquired amyloid neuropathy
Core Tip Domino liver transplantation (DLT) has been used in treatment of transthyretin amyloidosis, with explanted liver being transplanted to another patient with liver failure as the liver is otherwise usually fun-ctionally normal. Domino liver explant recipients are at risk of developing de novo systemic amyloidosis and amyloid neuropathy has been described in up to 23% of transplant recipients after a median of 7 years following DLT. Typical initial symptoms include neuropathic pain and sensory loss, while dysautonomia usually starts later. Explant allograft recipients need close monitoring for signs of systemic amyloidosis, neuropathy and dys-autonomia as progressive symptoms may require re-transplantation.
