Procalcitonin in early allograft dysfunction after orthotopic liver transplantation: A retrospective single centre study

2022-07-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is the pathophysiological hallmark of hepatic dysfunction after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Related to IRI, early allograft dysfunction (EAD) after OLT affects short- and long-term outcome.
