Postliver Transplant Acute Renal Injury and Failure by the RIFLE Criteria in Patients With Normal Pretransplant Serum Creatinine Concentrations: A Matched Study

Abstract

Post-LT ARI or ARF occurred frequently in patients with normal preoperative renal function and was associated with both preoperative and intraoperative risk factors. Although both post-LT ARI and ARF are associated with significant post-LT morbidity, the impact of ARF is greater.
