Conflict of interest: Yes, This work was supported by Brazilian Society of Hepatology and Instituto Brasileiro do Fígado - IBRAFIG. Introduction and Objectives: Previous studies have identified risk factors associated with recurrent primary sclerosing cholangitis (rPSC) after liver transplantation (LT) in Caucasians. There is paucity of data regarding rPSC in multiethnic Latin patients. Objectives: To investigate rPSC frequency and its associated risk factors in a highly admixed population from Brazil. Patients / Materials and Methods: The Brazilian Cholestasis Study Group database was retrospectively reviewed for including primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) patients who underwent LT. Primary outcome was rPSC. Results and Discussion: A total of 96 patients were included, 60% males, mean age 32 ± 13 years. After a follow-up of 90 months (interquartile range 39-154), rPSC occurred in 29 (30%) of the participants. There were no statistically significant associations between rPSC and age, gender, concurrent or de novo inflammatory bowel disease, MELD score at the time of LT or allograft rejection. The only factor associated with an increased risk of disease recurrence was time after LT. Conclusions: In Brazilian PSC patients who underwent LT, one-third had rPSC. Longer time after LT was associated with rPSC diagnosis. |
