Donor to Recipient Gender Mismatch in LDLT
Conditions
Brief summary
Liver transplantation (LT) represents the gold-standard therapy for the treatment in case of dreadful liver pathologies . It is thus a main concern to optimize the results in terms of post-LT survivals. The effect of gender match on post-transplant outcome is still debatable. Hormonal , and size difference between female and male may be proposed to affect the post transplant outcome . The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of donor-recipient gender mismatch on survival rates
