Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the Tacrolimus added to histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) solution given through intraportal and intraarterial infusion during back-table procedure is capable of reducing the degree of early allograft liver dysfunction, as assessed by postoperative levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), during first 7 postoperative days and by serum and histochemical markers of liver injury and inflammation.

Conditions

  • Early Allograft Dysfunction
  • Ischemic Reperfusion Injury
  • Liver Transplantation
  • Hyperfibrinolysis

Interventions

DRUG

Tacrolimus

1000 ml of HTK solution (Custodiol, Dr. Franz Köhler Chemie GmBH) cooled to 2-4˚C containing 20 ng/ml Tacrolimus would be given through intraportal (under gravity pressure of 40 cm H2O) and intraarterial infusion (under pressure of 40-50 mm Hg) followed by intraportal infusion of 200 ml 5% solution of Albumin containing 20 ng/ml Tacrolimus under gravity pressure of 40 cm H2O.
