Anatomical classification and clinical outcomes of biliary strictures in living donor liver transplantation using right liver grafts
Hansang Park, Eui Soo Han, Sae‐Jin Park, Su Young Hong, Sanggyun Suh, Sola Lee, Jeong‐Moo Lee, Suk Kyun Hong, YoungRok Choi, Kwang‐Woong Lee, Kyung‐Suk Suh, Nam‐Joon Yi, Joon Koo Han – 28 September 2022 – This study aimed to classify the anatomical types of biliary strictures, including intrahepatic biliary stricture (IHBS), after living donor liver transplantations (LDLTs) using right liver grafts and evaluate their prognosis. Among 692 adult patients who underwent right liver LDLT, 198 recipients with biliary strictures (28.6%) were retrospectively reviewed.

Approach to the patient with decompensated cirrhosis and aortic stenosis during liver transplantation evaluation
Nikki Duong, Veronica Nguyen, Lorenzo De Marchi, Arul Thomas – 26 September 2022 – Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular disease and is reported to be present in 2%–7% of people over the age of 65. Risk factors for aortic stenosis and NASH overlap; thus, as the population ages, there is an increased likelihood that patients undergoing liver transplantation evaluation may have severe aortic stenosis. There is a high mortality rate associated with cardiac surgeries in patients with cirrhosis.
Machine learning improves the accuracy of graft weight prediction in living donor liver transplantation
Mariano Cesare Giglio, Mario Zanfardino, Monica Franzese, Hazem Zakaria, Salah Alobthani, Ahmed Zidan, Islam Ismail Ayoub, Hany Abdelmeguid Shoreem, Boram Lee, Ho‐Seong Han, Andrea Della Penna, Silvio Nadalin, Roberto Ivan Troisi, Dieter Clemens Broering – 26 September 2022 – Precise graft weight (GW) estimation is essential for planning living donor liver transplantation to select grafts of adequate size for the recipient. This study aimed to investigate whether a machine‐learning model can improve the accuracy of GW estimation.
