The first successful report of liver transplantation from category III donation after circulatory death in South Korea: a case report

Deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT) using donations after brain death (DBDs) has been widely performed in Korea. However, to date, there is no report regarding donation after circulatory death (DCD) category III. A 56-year-old male patient diagnosed with hepatitis B virus-associated liver ci...

description Deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT) using donations after brain death (DBDs) has been widely performed in Korea. However, to date, there is no report regarding donation after circulatory death (DCD) category III. A 56-year-old male patient diagnosed with hepatitis B virus-associated liver cirrhosis underwent DDLT using DCD category III. The recipient’s recovery was uneventful, and he was discharged on postoperative day 37. Currently, the patient is alive, with no complications 20 months after transplantation. This case suggests that DCD with LT is both feasible and safe. Further studies are required to validate this finding.
