Research Abstract

Viability of the donor liver was assessed with regard to the early postoperative survival in human liver transplantations from 40 brain-dead donors in Hannox-er Medical College (MHH) and 31 living donors in Kyoto University (KYOTO) by measuring arterial ketone body ratio (AKBR). Of 40 cases harvested from brain-dead patients in MHH, 35 cases survived the first week after operation, but 5 cases developed the initial nonfunction of the transplanted graft (INF) and died within the first week. The mean valued of AKBR of each group were 1.10<minus-plus>0.10 and 0.44<minus-plus>0.10, respectively (p<0.01). A-I (BR of the 5 INF cases were all below 0.7. Of 31 cases harvested from the living donors in KYOTO, all survived the first week, and AKBR values of them were almost above 1.0 with the mean value of 1.85<minus-plus>0.23. In total of 66 cases, survival rates of the cases whose AKBR were higher than 0.7 was significantly higher than that of the cases whose AKBR were below 0.7 (100% v. s. 42%, p<
It is demonstrated that AKBR can be the effective scientific scale to evaluate the viability of the donor liver.
