Am J Transplant 9:1602-6. 2009..This novel technique, with a reversed cavaplasty and a 180 degrees right-to-left flip of the liver into a left-sided hepatic fossa, may be ideal for situs inversus totalis...
Older donor livers show early severe histological activity, fibrosis, and graft failure after liver transplantation for hepatitis CStephen C Rayhill
Department of Surgery, Roy J and Lucille A Carver College of Medicine, University of Iowa and Veterans Administration Medical Center, Iowa City, IA, USA
Transplantation 84:331-9. 2007..Increased donor age has emerged as an important variable affecting patient and graft survival; however, specific age cutoffs and risk ratios for poor histologic outcomes and graft survival are not clear...
A cyclosporine-based immunosuppressive regimen may be better than tacrolimus for long-term liver allograft survival in recipients transplanted for hepatitis CS C Rayhill
Oregon Health Science University, USA
Transplant Proc 38:3625-8. 2006..Evidence is inconsistent whether or how this translates to clinical practice. To expand the evidence on this issue, we analyzed graft survival and histological outcomes after liver transplantation for HCV hepatitis...
Successful non-heart-beating donor organ retrieval in a patient with a left ventricular assist deviceStephen C Rayhill
Department of Surgery, University of Iowa College of Medicine, Iowa City, IA, USA
Am J Transplant 4:144-6. 2004..Successful organ retrieval can be achieved on selected cases of NHBD with LVADs in which modifications of the procurement technique are implemented without jeopardizing the procurement and not increasing preservation injury...
New national liver transplant allocation policy: is the regional review board process fair?Michael D Voigt
Department of Internal Medicine, Roy A and Lucille J Carver College of Medicine, University of Iowa, Iowa City, 52242, USA
Liver Transpl 10:666-74. 2004..Denying requests does not increase mortality. The MELD-PELD score remains the best predictor of mortality, but the review board process adds additional information. Referring physicians predict patient mortality poorly...
