Abstract:

Liver transplantation is the only treatment for children with end-stage liver disease. Advances in surgical techniques and immunosuppressive agents have greatly improved the recipients′ prognosis after liver transplantation. Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a life-threatening complication after pediatric liver transplantation. It is closely related to the level of immunosuppression and Epstein-Barr virus DNA replication load in pediatric recipients after liver transplantation. There are certain difficulties in the diagnosis and treatment of PTLD, and the prognosis of the recipients is poor. This article reviews the recent research progress on PTLD following pediatric liver transplantation.

Key words: Pediatric liver transplantation, Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder, Progress
