Predictive role of laboratory assessments and interval radiological imaging in adverse thrombohemorrhagic outcomes in living donor liver transplantation

Key predictors of fatal thrombohemorrhagic complications following LT include antithrombin-III levels below 15%, protein C levels below 17%, and plasminogen activity below 21% on the first day post-surgery. A fibrinogen level under 160.1 mg/dL on the first day post-surgery, demonstrating 89% sensitivity and 96% specificity, strongly predicts fatal complications. Intraoperative blood loss over 1,200 mL represents a significant risk factor for post-LT hemorrhagic complications.
