Living donor liver transplantation for hepatic malignancies in children
© 2021 Wiley Periodicals LLC..
BACKGROUND: Living donor liver transplantation is a treatment option for unresectable hepatic tumors in children.
METHODS: We enrolled 45 living donor transplantations performed between 1993 and 2018 for liver malignacies, which included hepatoblastoma (n = 33), hepatocellular carcinoma (n = 10), hepatic angiosarcoma (n = 1), and rhabdomyosarcoma (n = 1).
RESULTS: No mortality or major morbidities were encountered in any donor, and the complication rate was 9%. In the hepatoblastoma group, 5-year overall and event-free survival rate in recipients was 87.4% and 75.8%, respectively, and mortality was significantly higher in patients after rescue transplantation (p = .001). Inferior vena cava replacement in these recipients appeared to be associated with reduced mortality (p = .034), but this was not confirmed when rescue patients were excluded (p = .629). In hepatocellular carcinoma group, both 5-year overall and event-free survival rates were 75.4% each, and invasion of hepatic veins was significantly associated with increased risk of recurrence and death (p = .028). The patient with rhabdomyosarcoma died from EBV-induced lymphoma 2 months after transplantation. The patient with angiosarcoma was in complete remission at the last follow-up. Overall, 5-year graft survival rate was 81.3%, and one patient underwent re-transplantation due to chronic rejection.
CONCLUSIONS: Pediatric oncological liver transplantation has become a key player in the management of malignancies with cancer cure in 84% of patients in this series. Living donor liver transplantation for pediatric recipients with unresectable tumors might be a beneficial surgical option, which is technically safe for donors and recipients, thus, allowing timely planning according to chemotherapy protocols.
