Objective. It was aimed to examine the overall role of cold ischemia time and anhepatic phase durations in terms of peroperative blood transfusion needs, hospital stay conditions and postoperative charges, and survival in recipients. Material and Methods. One hundred forty-eight adult living donor liver transplant recipients (18 years and older) were included in the study. Whether the anhepatic phase and cold ischemia duration have an effect on the rates of surgery time, blood product transfusion, total hospital and intensive care unit stay, postoperative biliary complications, hepatic vein thrombosis, portal vein thrombosis, early postoperative bleeding, sepsis, and primary graft dysfunction. Was analyzed statistically. In addition, the effect of the anhepatic phase and cold ischemia time on graft survival was statistically examined by creating an average of the patient follow-up period. Results. It was observed that the operation time increased statistically as the cold ischemia time increased (P P = .000). No statistically significant fi cant relationship was found between other fi nd- ings and cold ischemia time and anhepatic phase. Conclusion. Prolonged surgery time due to increased cold ischemia time may be an important fi nding in terms of peroperative and postoperative results of the graft.

Background. Living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) has become an increasingly common surgical option because the number of cadaveric donors is insufficient to fulfill the organ needs of patients facing end-stage cirrhosis. Many centers are investigating different surgical techniques to achieve lower complication rates. We aimed to examine our complication rates in light of demographic data, graft data, and perioperative findings as a single-center experience. Methods. The study included one hundred and three patients who underwent LDLT for endvein, and bile anastomosis type rates; anhepatic phase; cold ischemia time; operation time; and blood product transfusion rates were analyzed. Biliary complications in patients with single or multiple biliary anastomoses, right or left liver transplants, and with or without hepatic artery thrombosis were analyzed statistically. Results. There was no significant difference in biliary complications between patients who underwent single or multiple bile anastomosis (P = .231) or patients receiving right lobe and left lobe transplants (P = .315). Although there was no statistically significant difference in the rate of portal vein thrombosis between the regular and reconstructed portal vein anastomosis groups (P = .693), the postoperative portal vein thrombosis rate was statistically higher in patients with left lobe transplants (P = .044). Conclusions. Vascular and biliary complication rates can be reduced with increasing experience.
