Outcomes of LT/CKLT for patients with MMA.

NA, not available; OLT, orthotopic liver transplantation; LDLT, living donor liver transplantation.

&

72 days post-transplantation, MRI with diffusion-weighted imaging of brain demonstrated an acute lesion in the right globus pallidus but has never manifested clinical signs of extrapyramidal tract disease. Subsequent MRI 18 months later showed resolution of the basal ganglion lesion.

#

Died of sepsis on postoperative day 44.

*

One underwent liver retransplantation because of hepatic artery thrombosis.

†

The postoperative period was complicated by acute kidney injury. The renal function improved progressively.

※

Acute renal failure occurred after using contrast medium for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.

§

Underwent a renal biopsy 17 months after CLKT, which showed mild tubulointerstitial injury.
