The Changing Liver Transplant Recipient
Clinics in liver disease(2021)
摘要
Hepatitis C virus has historically been the leading indication for liver transplant, followed by nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and alcoholic liver disease. Severe alcoholic hepatitis has become a growing indication for liver transplant, and overall alcohol use rates continue to increase in the United States. Rates of obesity and NASH in the United States continue to increase and are expected to place increasing demand on liver transplant infrastructure. In the current absence of robust pharmacologic therapy for NASH, the use of bariatric procedures and surgeries is being explored, as are other innovative approaches to curtail this upward trend.
