Abstract

This study updates the ELTR experience with HEHE. The findings from this larger cohort substantiate the role of OLT in HEHE and identify rapid transplantation and microvascular invasion as predictors of poor outcomes while extrahepatic disease is not. The authors also affirm the overall improvement in outcomes that seem primarily reflective of improved patient selection.
