abstract = {BACKGROUND
Hepatic transplantation (HT), is one of the procedures performed as an option for the management of acute or chronic terminal liver failure, for certain types of neoplasias or metabolic diseases that present with hepatic dysfunction. There are few studies that describe the experience and results in our population.
OBJECTIVE
To describe the intrahospital complications, morbidity and early mortality (within the first 30 days) and the demographic characteristics of patients undergo HT at the Cardio Infantil Foundation (FCI) from January 1 2008 to December 31 2008. December 2015.
METHODOLOGY
A retrospective descriptive study was performed. Cases of HT carried out in the FCI from January 1 2008 to December 31 2015 were included.
Through a process of reviewing electronic medical records and the database provided by the transplant service of the FCI, the demographic characteristics, clinical conditions and therapies administered to the patients submitted to HT during the aforementioned period were described. In addition, intraoperative and postoperative complications - up to the first 30 days - of the population were described.
RESULTS
We included 304 people in whom HT was performed. The average age was 52.3 +/- 12 years. Mortality occurred in 2.9% of the cases. Intraoperative complications occurred in 15.2% of the patients, being related to this variable with the time of surgery, bleeding and transfused units of red blood cells. 9.7% had early postoperative complications and in 4.2% of cases a retransplantation was necessary.
CONCLUSIONS
The presentation of intraoperative complications is related to the time of surgery and the need for transfusion, Variables related to the complexity of the surgical act, some previous studies suggest that these variables are related to a higher mortality. Early mortality is low and no relationship was found with the variables explored.},
