Abstract

Liver transplantation is the last life-saving solution for patients with end stage liver disease. The low number of available liver grafts and the increasing waiting time on transplant lists have led to the appearance of extended donation criteria and the marginal grafs, initially considered suboptimal. Allocation of grafts and identification of the most suitable "donor-recipient" pair is still under development. The fact is that the appearance of marginal grafts has expanded the donation lists and seems to have a prognosis at least comparable to the use of ideal grafts.<br /> (Celsius.)
