Initial Liver Transplant Attempts:
First Liver Transplant
 March 1, 1963: First
attempted human
liver transplant
 July 23, 1967: First
successful human
liver transplant
Post-Moratorium Successes
 anti-lymphocyte
globulin (ALG) &
the “triple cocktail”
 improved organ
preservation
 definition of “brain
death”

• 1983 NIH Consensus Development Conference:
• “…Liver Transplantation is a therapeutic modality
for end stage liver disease that deserves broader
application.”
• 1984 National Organ Transplant Act:
• Sale of organs prohibited
• Development of UNOS
Indications for Liver Transplant
Life-threatening and progressive irreversible liver
disease
2. Fulminant hepatic failure
3. Hepatopulmonary or hepatorenal syndrome
4. Worsening synthetic function
5. Ascites resistant to medical therapy
6. Hepatic encephalopathy
7. Variceal hemorrhage
8. Progressive malnutrition
9. Increasing fatigue that interferes with daily activities

MELD (Model of End Stage Liver Disease)
• Originally developed to evaluate mortality in
patients undergoing elective TIPS procedures
• Subsequently validated as predictive of survival
in patients with end stage liver disease
• 85% of time accurately predicts individuals
survival
• Only objective data used in calculation
MELD
R= (0.957 x Loge(creatinine mg/dl)
+ 0.378 x Loge(total bilirubin mg/dl)

Reduce Donor/Recipient Discrepancy
• Donor awareness campaigns
• Extended criteria/ asystolic donors
• Split liver transplantation
• Living-donor liver transplantation
• Xenotransplantation

Personalized Immunosuppression
• Increase selectivity, decrease
toxicity/side effects
• Pediatric transplantation
• Hepatitis C
• Coinfection
Future

Future
Primary Liver Tumors
• Hepatocellular carcinoma that
exceeds Milan Criteria
• Down-staging
• Presence of vascular invasion
• Genetics
• Choangiocarcinoma
• Previously considered a
contraindication to OLT
• Mayo Protocol: multimodality
neoadjuvant therapy
• Genetics
Conclusion
• Liver transplantation has produced a positive
impact on patients with advanced liver
disease
• Spectacular improvement have occurred
since the preliminary work of Dr. Starzl
• The advances in liver transplantation have
occurred in a short 45 years and provide a
base for future advances
