“…Within one year of transplantation, 10% of livers fail. 12 Also, in the United States, as of 2013, approximately 3000 people on the transplant waitlist either die or become too sick to undergo transplant per year, and in 2017, 742 livers were thrown out post-procurement for a variety of reasons, including histological anomalies, 13,14 leading to not only a loss of life, but RESEARCH also a loss of healthcare dollars. Thus, it is important to develop stronger predictors for liver success and outcomes post-transplant.…”

Liver transplantation is the only definitive treatment for patients with end-stage liver disease. 1 Increase in the incidence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)-related liver failure has caused it to become one of the most common reasons for liver transplantation. The severity of the disease itself can range from hepatic steatosis (lipid retention in the liver) to steatohepatitis (lipid retention coupled with inflammation of liver tissue), and it can lead to advanced cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, among other ill sequelae. 1 The decision to use a liver from a deceased donor for transplantation into a recipient depends on histopathological, Figure 1: Different levels of fibrosis in liver parenchyma. This image shows the five accepted stages of fibrosis common in pathological analysis of liver fibrosis scoring, F0-F4.
