We reviewed protocol liver biopsies for 787 consecutive LT recipients with an 8.6‐year follow‐up.

The impact of post-reperfusion syndrome during liver transplantation using donor livers with significant macrosteatosis is largely unknown. Clinical outcomes of all patients undergoing LT with donor livers with moderate macrosteatosis between 2000-17 were compared to propensity score matched cohorts of patients undergoing LT with donor livers with mild macrosteatosis.

In 2012, an expert working group from the French Transplant Health Authority recommended the use of hypothermic machine perfusion to improve kidneys preservation and transplant outcomes from expanded criteria donors, deceased after brain death. This study compares HMP and cold storage effects on delayed graft function and transplant outcomes.

In this cohort study, we investigated the phenotype and risk of graft failure in patients with histological criteria for antibody-mediated rejection in the absence of circulating donor-specific anti-human leukocyte antigen antibodies, and compared this to patients with definite ABMR and HLA-DSA-positivity.
