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.

Regulation of bile acid metabolism in biliary atresia: reduction of FGF19 by Kasai portoenterostomy and possible relation to early outcome

Journal of Internal Medicine, 2020
Fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19) is produced in the small intestine and is involved in suppression of hepatic bile acid (BA) synthesis. FGF19 is also expressed in the liver and serum levels are elevated in adults with cholestatic liver disease.

Vitamin K deficiency bleeding and optimal prophylaxis methods in biliary atresia: A surveillance study in Japan

Pediatrics International, Volume 67, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
Abstract Background Vitamin K (VK) prophylaxis refers to the administration of VK to newborns to prevent neonatal VK deficiency bleeding (VKDB), which is characterized by intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). This study investigated the relationship between VK prophylaxis methods and VKDB in biliary atresia (BA).

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 ...
