Double Versus Single Hepatic Artery Anastomosis in Pediatric Left Liver Grafts: A Reassessment of Outcomes

Pediatric Transplantation, Volume 29, Issue 7, November 2025.
Our study of 489 pediatric living donor liver transplants demonstrated a low hepatic artery thrombosis rate of 1%. Age and cold ischemia time emerged as significant risk factors. Notably, performing a double hepatic artery anastomosis was safe but did not decrease the incidence of biliary complications such as strictures or leaks.

Diagnostic performance and prognostic value of elastography in patients with biliary atresia and after hepatic portoenterostomy: protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis

BMJ Open, 2021
Introduction Biliary atresia (BA) is a life-threatening disease with persistent neonatal cholestasis and progressive liver fibrosis. Timely non-invasive diagnosis of BA can result in early hepatic portoenterostomy (HPE) and better prognosis. Quantitative

Correlation of the Expression Profile of Peripheral Leukocyte and Liver Tissue Immune Markers With Serum Liver Injury Indices in Children With Biliary Atresia

Mediators of Inflammation, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The aim of the study was to find associations between the levels of liver injury serum markers and the selected liver, peripheral leukocytes, and plasma immune characteristics in biliary atresia (BA) children. Twenty‐five newly diagnosed BA children aged 4–30 weeks and 12 age‐matched controls were included (for leukocytes characteristics) and 19 BA ...
