Liver Graft-to-Spleen Volume Ratio as a Useful Predictive Factor of the Outcomes in Living Donor Liver Transplantation: A Retrospective Study

BackgroundIn living donor liver transplantation (LDLT), graft-to-recipient weight ratio (GRWR) <0. 8% is an important index for predicted portal hypertension, which may induce the graft small-for-size syndrome (SFSS). Recently, the value of graft-to-spleen volume ratio (GSVR) on predicted por...
