Abstract
Background: Multi-visceral transplantation (MvTx) usually refers to the transplantation of more than three intra-abdominal organs. A successful MvTx requires strong multidisciplinary teamwork of transplant surgeons, anesthesiologists, and intensivists.
Case presentation: We present five cases of MvTx with a history of short bowel syndrome admitted to the Abu-Ali Sina Hospital, Shiraz, Iran from May 2019 to January 2020 and describe anesthetic considerations in MvTx. Subjects were identified (4F/1M) with a mean age of 43 years old (range 35-51). The most frequent cause of intestinal failure was portal vein thrombosis, followed by bowel gangrene and short bowel syndrome. The mean ±SD duration of the operation was 360±60 min. The bleeding volume was approximately 2600±1474 cc, and 4±1 bags of packed red blood cells were transfused. Sepsis was the main cause of death in our series.
Conclusion: Careful preoperative planning, vigilant intraoperative anesthetic management, and prevention of postoperative infection are imperative to achieve the best outcomes.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Organ Transplantation Medicine (IJOTM) is a quarterly peer-reviewed English-language journal that publishes high-quality basic sciences and clinical research on transplantation. The scope of the journal includes organ and tissue donation, procurement and preservation; surgical techniques, innovations, and novelties in all aspects of transplantation; genomics and immunobiology; immunosuppressive drugs and pharmacology relevant to transplantation; graft survival and prevention of graft dysfunction and failure; clinical trials and population analyses in the field of transplantation; transplant complications; cell and tissue transplantation; infection; post-transplant malignancies; sociological and ethical issues and xenotransplantation.
