03, 95% CI, 1.02 – 1.04, p<0.001). HCV positivity (HR 1.42, 95% CI, 1.10 - 1.83, p<0.01) and DM (HR 1.52, 95% CI, CP-690550 manufacturer 1.09 – 2.11, p<0.02) were similarly associated with significantly lower survival following LDLT. Patients with HE (HR 1.27, 95% CI, 0.97 - 1.65, p=0.08) had a non-significant trend toward lower survival, whereas obesity (HR 1.08, 95% CI, 0.82 - 1.43, p=0.58) was not associated with survival following LDLT. Conclusions: In the U.S. experience of LDLT, HCC is an independent predictor of lower survival.

Increased age, HCV positivity, and DM are also associated with lower survival following LDLT. These findings may enable optimization of patient selection for LDLT.

Su, Clark A. Bonham, Carlos O. Esquivel Purpose: In kidney donation, application of laparoscopy has led to a marked increase in unrelated donor interest. Laparos-copy was extended to liver donation to reduce invasiveness and our center has offered selected patients fully laparoscopic procurement since 8/12. We sought to determine the impact of offering laparoscopic donation on donor interest in LDLT. Methods: We examined a retrospective cohort of 244 potential donors and their 206 recipients who underwent evaluation between 1/10 and 3/14. We separated our patients into two groups, based on date of evaluation of the donor (prior to or after 8/12). We analyzed percentage

of waitlisted candidates with potential donors, relationships between medchemexpress donors and recipients and evaluations that resulted in donation. Potential donors were informed that the application of full laparoscopy to donor hepatectomy was novel and all consented to our IRB-approved observational protocol. Results: An insignificant decrease in the percentage of waitlist candidates with a potential donor was observed between 2010-12 and 2013, from 17% to 16% (P=0.75). However, total candidates on our waitlist increased by 26% leading to a 27% increase in donor evaluations per month (P=0.07). When controlling for the rise in candidate listings, only a 1.4% increase in evaluations per month was observed. We also noted an insignificant 3.7% increase in average potential donors per recipient (P=0.52). Unrelated donors (those with a non-biological relationship to the recipient, excluding spouses) increased from 18% to 29% (P=0.04) and the biggest increase was seen in 2013 (17% to 35%, P=0.002). There was an increase in unrelated donors going on to donate from 14% to 23%, but this did not reach significance (P=0.31).
