Br J Surg 1973 Il modello MELD c l i c c a s u l p u l s a n t e p e r c a l c o Il MELD (Mayo End stage Liver Disease) è un particolare sistema a punteggio che è stato proposto dalla Mayo Clinic (Rochester, Minnesota, USA) per valutare la sopravvivenza dei pazienti con la cirrosi ed un'insufficienza epatica terminale. Si basa sulla determinazione dei valori di bilirubina, di INR (indice della coagulazione del paziente) e di creatinina (indice della funzione dei reni). Tanto più alto è il punteggio ottenuto, tanto più gravi sono le condizioni cliniche del paziente. La formula per il calcolo è: 3.8*loge(bilirubina [mg/dL]) + 11.2*loge(INR) + 9.6*loge(creatinina [mg/dL]) Liver transplantation in HIV-infected recipients in HAART era in Italy: inclusion criteria “Eligible” subjects: – No history of AIDS defining illness in the previous two years – CD4 >200 or >100 if intolerant to ARVs – HIV RNA undetectable, or intolerant to ARVs but post-transplant HIV suppression is expected “Ineligible” subjects: – Did not meet 1 or more criteria above UDINE, (2004-2009) 26/418 OLT 17% of the overall activity of the center Traditional types of liver transplant in adults and children Cadarveric donor Whole liver Living donor Split liver Classic split Enlarged split Split liver OLTx Surgical Incision Traditional technique Piggy-Back technique Split sinistro pediatrico Split destro adulto Trapianto di fegato da donatore vivente LRLT Trapianto di fegato da donatore vivente INDICAZIONI ADULTO LRLT 4% 8% FHF P=0.05 58% 60% Cirrosi HCC ReOLT 22% 10% 0.8% P< 0.0001 LRLT P< 0.0001 10% Intero da cadavere 15% 13% Altre 0% 20% 40% 60% Patient Survival according to the Year of Liver Transplantation (%) 100 88 85 80 77 82 65 60 61 64 52 46 40 34 20 0 21 0 1 2 <85 : 513 95-99 : 18044 3 4 5 18 6 7 85-89 : 4117 2000-2004 : 22573 8 9 10 Yrs 90-94 : 11984 >2004 : 6157 ELTR Evolution of Recipient Age 12/2005 05/1968 - 12/2005 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 6880 82 84 86 0 to 2 : 2633 88 90 92 2 to 15 : 3598 45 to 60 : 27864 94 96 98 2000 15 to 45 : 17860 >= 60 : 9561 2002 2004 Patient Survival according to Adult Recipient Age 01/1988 - 06/2006 100 (%) 81 80 74 70 78 69 60 63 59 62 52 45 40 < 60 yrs : 45262 20 p Log Rank = 0.001 >=60 yrs : 9867 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Yrs ELTR Soppravvivenza SPLIT versus LRLT e OLT (%) 100 79 80 75 77 65 60 66 64 58 54 49 40 Intero da cadavere Living donor Split liver 20 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 anni ELTR Graft Survival according to Donor Age in Europe 12/2005 01/1988 - 12/2005 (%) 100 Total Log Rank test p = 0.0001 <55 years : 46061 55-65 years : 7607 75 80 >=65 years : 4763 68 72 60 64 57 57 61 53 48 53 41 40 41 32 20 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Yrs AFTER OLTx Immunological complications Rejection Infections ...
