    Innovative Technique Avoiding Bleeding After Reperfusion in Living Donor Liver Transplant Using a Modified Right Lobe Graft
    (2022) PINHEIRO, Rafael S.; ANDRAUS, Wellington; FORTUNATO, Allana C.; FERNANDES, Michel Ribeiro; NACIF, Lucas Souto; MARTINO, Rodrigo Bronze De; DUCATTI, Liliana; WAISBERG, Daniel Reis; ARANTES, Rubens Macedo; ROCHA-SANTOS, Vinicius; GALVAO, Flavio Henrique Ferreira; CARNEIRO-D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto
    Background. Living donor liver transplant (LDLT) is a valuable therapeutic option for over-coming the deceased donor shortage. Modified right lobe graft (MRLG) keeps the middle hepatic vein (MHV) trunk with the remnant liver to improve donor safety. Hemostasis in the MHV tributary reconstruction can be tricky; surgical stitches and energy coagulation are ineffective. Fibrin glues are excellent vascular sealants but are poor in maintaining hemostasis in an active hemorrhage or preventing resection surface-related complications after liver resection. We propose applying fibrin sealant during back table graft preparation to seal the hepatic edge and MHV reconstruction to avoid bleeding after graft revascularization. Methods. Our retrospective cohort study included all adult patients undergoing LDLT between August 2017 and December 2021. During the back table procedure, we performed the reconstruction of the inferior right hepatic vein and/or MHV tributaries from segment 5 (V5) and segment 8 (V8) using a vein harvested from a nonrelated deceased donor. Before initiating the hepatic graft implantation, we applied fibrin sealant in the resected parenchyma, especially in the V5 and V8 anastomosis, to seal the hepatic edge and hepatic vein reconstruction. Results. No bleeding was identified in the hepatic edge, and blood product transfusion was unnecessary for any recipients after reperfusion. Conclusion. In LDLT using MRLG with MHV reconstruction, the fibrin sealant, when applied on the raw hepatic surface, and vascular reconstruction during back table graft preparation avoided bleeding after graft revascularization.

    Re-Transplantation, Higher Creatinine Levels in Hepatitis C Virus Patients, and Donor Age Are Predictors of Mortality in Long-Term Analysis of Late Acute Rejection in Liver Transplantation
    (2017) NACIF, Lucas Souto; PINHEIRO, Rafael Soares; PECORA, Rafael Antonio de Arruda; TANIGAWA, Ryan Yukimatsu; ROCHA-SANTOS, Vinicius; ANDRAUS, Wellington; ALVES, Venancio Avancini Ferreira; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Carneiro
    Background: Late acute rejection (LAR) differs in its clinical and histological presentation and management from early acute rejection. This clinical entity is not completely understood; thus, we aimed to identify significant prognostic factors that can influence post-transplant survival in LAR patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence and post-transplant survival of patients from a single center with a focus on late acute rejection. Material/Methods: From January 2002 to June 2013, all liver biopsies from patients with rejection were scored using the Banff criteria. The groups were compared, and simple and multiple logistic regression and survival curves were created. Results: A total of 779 liver transplants were performed; 585 patients with no rejections and 194 patients with rejections were analyzed. The overall incidence of LAR was 6.7%, and there was a higher prevalence of early acute cellular rejection than LAR. The mean time to LAR was 564 days (median 214 days, range 91-2642). LAR had a more severe grade (35.3%) than early acute rejection (23.5%). The survival rates were similar between both modalities for the long-term period. Worse mortality rates were observed in liver re-transplantation (HR 4.77; p<0.0001); in hepatitis C virus patients with increased creatinine levels (HR 22.48; p=0.016); and in donors > 41 years of age (OR 2.1; p=0.047) in a long-term analysis of LAR. Conclusions: Liver re-transplantation, higher creatinine levels in hepatitis C virus patients, and donor age were predictors of mortality in this long-term analysis of late acute rejection in liver transplantation.

    Successful liver allograft inflow reconstruction with the right gastroepiploic vein
    (2016) PINHEIRO, Rafael S.; CRUZ JR., Ruy J.; NACIF, Lucas S.; VANE, Matheus F.; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz A. C.
    Portal vein thrombosis is a common complication in cirrhotic patients. When portal vein thrombectomy is not a suitable option, a large collateral vessel can be used for allograft venous inflow reconstruction. We describe an unusual case of successful portal revascularization using the right gastroepiploic vein. The patient underwent a cadaveric orthotropic liver transplantation with end-to-end anastomosis of the portal vein to the right gastroepiploic vein. Six months after liver transplantation the patient is well with good liver function. The use of the right gastroepiploic vein for allograft venous reconstruction is feasible and safe, with a great advantage of avoiding the need of venous jump graft.

    PREOPERATIVE COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY VOLUMETRY AND GRAFT WEIGHT ESTIMATION IN ADULT LIVING DONOR LIVER TRANSPLANTATION
    (2017) PINHEIRO, Rafael S.; CRUZ-JR, Ruy J.; ANDRAUS, Wellington; DUCATTI, Liliana; MARTINO, Rodrigo B.; NACIF, Lucas S.; ROCHA-SANTOS, Vinicius; ARANTES, Rubens M; LAI, Quirino; IBUKI, Felicia S.; ROCHA, Manoel S.; D´ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz A. C.
    ABSTRACT Background: Computed tomography volumetry (CTV) is a useful tool for predicting graft weights (GW) for living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Few studies have examined the correlation between CTV and GW in normal liver parenchyma. Aim: To analyze the correlation between CTV and GW in an adult LDLT population and provide a systematic review of the existing mathematical models to calculate partial liver graft weight. Methods: Between January 2009 and January 2013, 28 consecutive donors undergoing right hepatectomy for LDLT were retrospectively reviewed. All grafts were perfused with HTK solution. Estimated graft volume was estimated by CTV and these values were compared to the actual graft weight, which was measured after liver harvesting and perfusion. Results: Median actual GW was 782.5 g, averaged 791.43±136 g and ranged from 520-1185 g. Median estimated graft volume was 927.5 ml, averaged 944.86±200.74 ml and ranged from 600-1477 ml. Linear regression of estimated graft volume and actual GW was significantly linear (GW=0.82 estimated graft volume, r2=0.98, slope=0.47, standard deviation of 0.024 and p<0.0001). Spearman Linear correlation was 0.65 with 95% CI of 0.45 - 0.99 (p<0.0001). Conclusion: The one-to-one rule did not applied in patients with normal liver parenchyma. A better estimation of graft weight could be reached by multiplying estimated graft volume by 0.82.

    (2014) NACIF, Lucas Souto; ANDRAUS, Wellington; MARTINO, Rodrigo Bronze; SANTOS, Vinicius Rocha; PINHEIRO, Rafael Soares; HADDAD, Luciana BP; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Carneiro
    BACKGROUND: Liver transplantation is performed at large transplant centers worldwide as a therapeutic intervention for patients with end-stage liver diseases. AIM: To analyze the outcomes and incidence of liver transplantation performed at the University of São Paulo and to compare those with the State of São Paulo before and after adoption of the Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score. METHOD: Evaluation of the number of liver transplantations before and after adoption of the MELD score. Mean values and standard deviations were used to analyze normally distributed variables. The incidence results were compared with those of the State of São Paulo. RESULTS: There was a high prevalence of male patients, with a predominance of middle-aged. The main indication for liver transplantation was hepatitis C cirrhosis. The mean and median survival rates and overall survival over ten and five years were similar between the groups (p>0.05). The MELD score increased over the course of the study period for patients who underwent liver transplantation (p>0.05). There were an increased number of liver transplants after adoption of the MELD score at this institution and in the State of São Paulo (p<0.001). CONCLUSION: The adoption of the MELD score led to increase the number of liver transplants performed in São Paulo.

    (2021) DUCATTI, Liliana; HADDAD, Luciana B. P.; MEYER, Alberto; NACIF, Lucas S.; ARANTES, Rubens M.; MARTINO, Rodrigo B.; ROCHA-SANTOS, Vinicius; WAISBERG, Daniel R.; PINHEIRO, Rafael S.; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz A. C.; ANDRAUS, Wellington
    Background: The incidence of abdominal hernia in cirrhotic patients is as higher as 20%; in cases of major ascites the incidence may increase up to 40%. One of the main and most serious complications in cirrhotic postoperative period (PO) is acute kidney injury (AKI). Aim: To analyze the renal function of cirrhotic patients undergoing to hernia surgery and evaluate the factors related to AKI. Methods: Follow-up of 174 cirrhotic patients who underwent hernia surgery. Laboratory tests including the renal function were collected in the PO.AKI was defined based on the consensus of the ascite's club. They were divided into two groups: with (AKI PO) and without AKI .Results: All 174 patients were enrolled and AKI occurred in 58 (34.9%). In the AKI PO group, 74.1% had emergency surgery, whereas in the group without AKI PO it was only 34.6%.In the group with AKI PO, 90.4% presented complications, whereas in the group without AKI PO they occurred only in 29.9%. Variables age, baseline MELD, baseline creatinine, creatinine in immediate postoperative (POI), AKI and the presence of ascites were statistically significant for survival. Conclusions: There is association between AKI PO and emergency surgery and, also, between AKI PO and complications after surgery. The factors related to higher occurrence were initial MELD, basal Cr, Cr POI. The patients with postoperative AKI had a higher rate of complications and higher mortality.

    Ten Years' Evaluation of Potential Pancreas Donors in Sao Paulo, Brazil
    (2014) PINHEIRO, R. S.; ROCHA-SANTOS, V.; PECORA, R. A.; MACEDO, R. A.; NACIF, L. S.; ANDRAUS, W.; DAVID, A. I.; PANTANALI, C. A.; BENITES, C. M.; D'ALBUQUERQUE, L. A. C.
    Background. Pancreas transplantation is a treatment for advanced type 1 diabetes and offers significant improvement in quality of life. Recent advances in surgical techniques and immunosuppression regimes lead to good outcomes. However, despite significant higher rates of multiorgan donors in Brazil, pancreas transplantation seems to have remained stable. This study aimed to investigate the acceptance rate of potential pancreas donors in the past 10 years in Sao Paulo State. Methods. We retrospectively evaluated potential pancreas donors characteristics and its acceptance rate in Sao Paulo State in the past 10 years. We divided this period into 2 eras: 1st era from January 2003 to January 2008; and 2nd era from January 2008 to January 2013. Data were obtained from Sao Paulo's government official website. Results. During the whole period, 5,005 deceased donors of all ages were available for pancreas transplantation. According to eras, we had 1,588 donors in the 1st and 3,417 in the 2nd era. In the 2nd era, donors >49 years old were significantly more common (P < .001). Blood test abnormalities, donor comorbidities, and high dosage of vasopressors also were significantly higher in the 2nd era. Rate of graft acceptance had a significant decrease in the 2nd era, from 46.4% to 25% (P < .05). Conclusions. Despite greater organ availability, pancreas transplantations performed in Sao Paulo State remained stable. Rate of graft acceptance is dramatically lower in more recent years.
