  7. Question • What two kinds of information are used in the Child-Turcote-Pugh Score of Severity of Liver Disease ?

  8. Question • What two kinds of information are used in the Child-Turcote-Pugh Score of Severity of Liver Disease ? • Clinical symptoms (encepholopathy, ascites, PSC/PBC) • Lab data (albumin, PT)

  9. Question • What three variables does the MELD score take into account?

  10. Question • What three variables does the MELD score take into account? • Bilirubin • INR • Creatinine

  11. Question: • If you were going to Foxwoods, and you had to bet on a patient’s survival with end-stage liver disease, who would you rather rode shotgun: Mr. MELD or Mr. CTP? Why?

  12. Score Concordance 95% Confidence Interval Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) 0.88 0.85, 0.90 Child-Turcote-Pugh (CTP) 0.79 0.75, 0.83 Question: • Mr. MELD, baby  • (MELD = model of end-stage liver disease) TABLE 27-3 -- Concordance with 3-Month Mortality: MELD and CTP

  13. Question • Which of the following are absolute contraindications to liver transplantation? • Active sepsis • Extrahepatic malignancy • HIV • Portal vein thrombosis • HCC

  14. Question • What type of virus is hepatitis B?

  15. Question • What type of virus is hepatitis B? • hepandnavirus

  16. Question • Which of the following are absolute contraindications to liver transplantation? • Active sepsis • Extrahepatic malignancy • HIV • Portal vein thrombosis • HCC

  17. Question • You’ve had chronic hepatitis B for 25-30 years and you have now begun to show clinical symptoms of cirrhosis. Imaging demonstrates a nodular liver with a mass. What is the likely diagnosis?

  18. Question • You’ve had chronic hepatitis B for 25-30 years and you have now begun to show clinical symptoms of cirrhosis. Imaging demonstrates a nodular liver with a mass. What is the likely diagnosis? • Hepatocellular carcinoma

  19. Question: • You go back in time 25 years. You wish to be treated for your HBV. What is the treatment, and what is the chance that it may lead to remission?

  20. Question: • You go back in time 25 years. You wish to be treated for your HBV. What is the treatment, and what is the chance that it may lead to remission? • Interferon alpha 2b. 40% remission rate

  21. Question: • Because you are a big baseball star, you get a liver transplant even though you have chronic HBV. What are the treatments to keep you from infecting your graft?

  22. Question: • Because you are a big baseball star, you get a liver transplant even though you have chronic HBV. What are the treatments to keep you from infecting your graft? • High titer G +/- lamivudine

  23. Question • What infection can accelerrate the cirrhosis that accompanies ETOH abuse?

  24. Question • What infection can accelerrate the cirrhosis that accompanies ETOH abuse? • HCV

  25. PSC PBC Pruritis Jaundice Elevated Alk phos Damage to large bile ducts Damage to small intrahepatic ducts Associated with IBD Associated with cholangiocarcinoma Liver failure Does well with transplantation Match ‘em

  26. Pruritis (both) Jaundice (both) Elevated Alk phos (both) Damage to large bile ducts (PSC) Damage to small intrahepatic ducts (PBC) Associated with IBD (PSC) Associated with cholangiocarcinoma (PSC) Liver failure (both) Does well with transplantation (both) Match ‘em

  27. Question • What 3 factors make it likely that a patient with HCC will benefit from liver transplantation?

  28. Question • What 3 factors make it likely that a patient with HCC will benefit from liver transplantation? • Low grade tumor • Tumor <5cm • Limited multifocality of tumor • (No macrovascular invasion too)

  29. Question • What are the characteristics of a marginal / expanded criteria donor?

  30. Question • What are the characteristics of a marginal / expanded criteria donor? • Older donors (age up to 75!!) • Hep c +, hep B core + • Steatosis of liver graft

  31. Question • What variables are considered when matching donor and recipient?

  32. Question • What variables are considered when matching donor and recipient? • ABO (can be crossed if urgent) • Size • Age (for pedi patients)

  33. True or False • Dr. Dow will think it is really cool if you take the hepatic veins off the donor’s cava when recovering your first liver in our new transplant program.

  34. True or False • Dr. Dow will think it is really cool if you take the hepatic veins off the donor’s cava when recovering your first liver in our new transplant program. • False

  35. Road Map • Describe the purpose and path of circulation of veno-venous bypass

  36. Road Map • Describe the purpose and path of circulation of veno-venous bypass • Inflow: portal and femoral veins • Outflow : IJ • 2.5 L/min • Control of body temperature (Rewarming) • Cvvh during the case • ? If it matters

  37. Question • How long does it take for a recipient of a split liver Right lobe to achieve a “standard” liver mass equivalent?

  38. Question • How long does it take for a recipient of a split liver Right lobe to achieve a “standard” liver mass equivalent? • Only 1 month!!

  39. Question • Name the possible operative complications that can occur in liver transplantation.

  40. Question • Name the possible operative complications that can occur in liver transplantation. • Bleeding (page me) • Portal vein thrmobosis (may use collaterals) • Hepatic artery reconstruction • Primary nonfunction

  41. Question • How common is primary non-function?

  42. Question • How common is primary non-function? • 2-3% • Hemodynamic instability • MSOF • Encephalopaty • Rx: retransplantation

  43. Question • How is a definitive diagnosis of acute rejection made? How is it treated?

  44. Question • How is a definitive diagnosis of acute rejection made? How is it treated? • Liver bx -- demonstrate the presence of periportal lymphocytic infiltrate that extends into the liver parenchyma, as well as the invasion of inflammatory cells into the vascular endothelium. • --corticosteroids. More potent monoclonal or polyclonal anti–T-cell antibodies are effective against corticosteroid-resistant rejection, leading to the reversal of the acute episode in more than 90% of the recipients

  45. Question • What is “vanishing bile duct” syndrome?

  46. Question • What is “vanishing bile duct” syndrome? • Manifestation of chronic rejection • Poorly understood • Candidates for re-transplantation

  47. Statistics • What is the 10 year survival of patients with liver transplantation, based on 30,000 UNOS patients? Adults vs. Kids?

  48. Statistics • What is the 10 year survival of patients with liver transplantation, based on 30,000 UNOS patients? Adults vs. Kids? • Adults: 59% px survival, 51% graft survival • Pedi: 78% px survival, 63% graft

  49. Survival
