Brief summary
The primary objective of this study was to assess the safety and feasibility of split liver transplantation(SLT) for adult hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, while comparing the prognostic disparities between adult SLT and WLT also . Liver transplantation (LT) is an effective treatment for end-stage liver disease. As a traditional marginal donor liver, the application of SLT in pediatric patients is successful.However, its application in adult liver transplantation, especially in HCC patients, remains controversial. This retrospective study analyze outcomes among adults who underwent SLT and whole liver transplantation (WLT) at two centers from January 2018 to August 2022. A 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed based on important donor and recipient variables. Baseline characteristics and postoperative outcomes of the above recipients were analyzed and compared. Statistical significance was determined using a two-sided p-value threshold of less than 0.05.
