Abstract

Central perivenulitis (CP) in the allograft liver can be associated with portal-based acute cellular rejection and autoimmune hepatitis or can occur in isolation (isolated CP). Although several studies have demonstrated the significance of CP, the prevalence and natural history of untreated isolated CP have not been well studied. We examined 100 adult allograft liver recipients who had long-term follow-up, had routine protocol biopsies, and received no treatment for isolated CP. Isolated CP was identified in 28 (28%) patients. It occurred late at a mean of 658 days. Interestingly, patients with late isolated CP (defined as >3 months posttransplant) usually manifested only mildly to modestly elevated liver function tests. However, late isolated CP was associated with prior and subsequent allograft complications. Nearly all (94%) cases of late isolated CP occurred in patients who had early episodes of CP and/or acute cellular rejection. Of 13 patients who developed adverse outcomes in their allografts (zone 3 fibrosis in 10, de novo autoimmune hepatitis in 3, and ductopenia in 3), all experienced episodes of prior CP, and 12 (92%) had late CP; 1 patient required retransplant for chronic rejection, but all were alive within the la...Continue Reading

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.

Autoimmune Hepatitis

Autoimmune hepatitis formerly called lupoid hepatitis, is a chronic, autoimmune disease of the liver that occurs when the body's immune system attacks liver cells causing the liver to be inflamed. Discover the latest research on autoimmune hepatitis here.

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.
