Histologische Diagnostik bei Spenderlebern: Gemeinsame Empfehlungen von DGP, DTG und DSO
2019
BACKGROUND: The indications, implementation and reporting of liver biopsies for deceased organ donation are not mandatory or regulated. Reliable data on outcome quality and prognostic relevance are therefore not available. Defined standards are thus required to enable meaningful studies and to ensure high data quality of a national transplantation registry. OBJECTIVE: Presentation of a synopsis of available studies and literature-based recommendations. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Against the background of an organ shortage and a growing number of older donors, pretransplantation liver histology is of significant relevance to guide clinical decision making. With the joint recommendations of the German Transplantation Society (DTG), the German Society of Pathology (DGP) and the German Organ Transplantation Foundation (DSO) standardized procedures are defined for the first time.
