Retrospective Cohort Study of Associated Factors for Intestinal Complications in Pediatric Liver Transplantation
One in 10 children post-LT experiences IC, which are associated with significant morbidity. Pre-LT nutritional status appears as an associated factor with IC, along with the necessity for adhesiolysis during LT, often leading to prolonged operative time. These associated factors should alert medical teams to promote early IC diagnosis in patients after LT.
