We sought to evaluate our experience concerning the high waiting list mortality rate for orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) using the MELD (Model for End-Stage Liver Disease), which has been shown to predict short-term survival better than Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) classification. The predominant end-stage disease was cirrhosis due to hepatitis C virus (67%), patient mean age was 36.8 years, and 72.1% were men. When the patients were included on a waiting list, the MELD score was stratified into W: 0 to 10; X: 11 to 20, and Y: 21 to 40 and the CPT as A: 5 to 6, B: 7 to 9, and C: 10 to 15. It was also observed that 77.8% of patients were on the waiting list, 16.4% underwent OLT and 5.8% had been removed. The estimated survival rate after 1 year was W = 85.4%; X = 83.3%, Y = 46.8%; A = 81.3%, B = 84.2%, C = 45.9%. Child median score was 8 +/- 1.5 (5 to 15) and the MELD was 14.7 +/- 5.1 (8 to 43). The mortality rate was 20.2%. Severe patients classified as Y or C showed greater mortality than the other groups (P <.001), but no significant difference between Y and C strata. The mortality rate was the same as in previous years.
我们试图评估我们在使用终末期肝病模型(MELD)进行原位肝移植(OLT)时,关于高等待名单死亡率的经验,该模型已被证明在预测短期生存方面优于Child-Turcotte-Pugh(CTP)分级。主要的终末期疾病是丙型肝炎病毒引起的肝硬化(67%),患者平均年龄为36.8岁,72.1%为男性。当患者被列入等待名单时,MELD评分被分层为W:0至10;X:11至20,以及Y:21至40,而CTP分级为A:5至6,B:7至9,以及C:10至15。还观察到77.8%的患者在等待名单上,16.4%接受了OLT,5.8%已被移除。1年后的估计生存率为W = 85.4%;X = 83.3%,Y = 46.8%;A = 81.3%,B = 84.2%,C = 45.9%。Child中位数评分为8±1.5(5至15),MELD评分为14.7±5.1(8至43)。死亡率为20.2%。分类为Y或C的重症患者显示出比其他组更高的死亡率(P <.001),但Y和C分层之间无显著差异。死亡率与前几年相同。
