The aim of this study was to determine if age less than 1 year is a high risk group for orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Retrospective analysis was done of patients with liver failure who received OLT. Comparison was made between patients aged < 1 year and > 1 year with regard to survival, allograft survival, hepatic artery thrombosis, and medical status at OLT. Between January 1, 1987 and September 30, 1991, 46 children received OLT. Fifteen (35%) were < 1 year (average age, 7.93 months). Survival in children < 1 year was 80% and children > 1 year was 91%. Allograft survival in children < 1 year was 57% (21 allografts required for 12 survivors) and 78% in children > 1 year (37 allografts required for 29 survivors). Retransplantation was required in 5 of 15 children < 1 year (33%) and in 5 of 29 children (17%) > 1 year. Medical status in children < 1 year was similar to medical status in children > 1 year at the time of transplant. Children with chronic stable liver disease represented 60% of children < 1 year and 60.1% of children > 1 year. Children requiring hospitalization represented 26% of children < 1 year and 29% of children > 1 year. Children in intensive care represented 13% of children < 1 year and 11% of children > 1 year. Survival for all status groups was similar. Hepatic artery thrombosis occurred in one child < 1 year and in 2 children > 1 year. No statistical difference (chi 2 analysis) was found by age between the categories evaluated.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
本研究的目的是确定年龄小于1岁是否为原位肝移植(OLT)的高危人群。对接受OLT的肝衰竭患者进行了回顾性分析。比较了年龄<1岁和>1岁患者在生存、移植物存活、肝动脉血栓形成以及OLT时的医疗状况。1987年1月1日至1991年9月30日期间,46名儿童接受了OLT。15名(35%)年龄<1岁(平均年龄7.93个月)。年龄<1岁儿童的生存率为80%,年龄>1岁儿童的生存率为91%。年龄<1岁儿童的移植物存活率为57%(12名幸存者需要21个移植物),年龄>1岁儿童的移植物存活率为78%(29名幸存者需要37个移植物)。15名年龄<1岁的儿童中有5名(33%)需要再次移植,29名年龄>1岁的儿童中有5名(17%)需要再次移植。移植时年龄<1岁儿童的医疗状况与年龄>1岁儿童的医疗状况相似。患有慢性稳定肝病的儿童在年龄<1岁的儿童中占60%,在年龄>1岁的儿童中占60.1%。需要住院治疗的儿童在年龄<1岁的儿童中占26%,在年龄>1岁的儿童中占29%。在重症监护的儿童在年龄<1岁的儿童中占13%,在年龄>1岁的儿童中占11%。所有状态组的生存率相似。1名年龄<1岁的儿童和2名年龄>1岁的儿童发生了肝动脉血栓形成。在所评估的类别之间,按年龄未发现统计学差异(卡方分析)。(摘要截短于250字)
