- W2000667148 abstract "Objective: To analyse the outcome of six children with Crigler–Najjar syndrome type I (CNS‐I) and report the first three living‐related liver transplants for this syndrome in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East. Settings: To review the medical records of six children suffering from CNS‐I, three of whom underwent living‐related liver transplantation (LRLT) between 22 November 1998 and January 2001. Main results: Living‐related liver transplantation was performed in three children with a pre‐transplant unconjugated bilirubin level of 362, 381 and 502 μmol/L, respectively, despite daily phototherapy of ≥ 12 h. Two of the transplanted children developed acute hepatocellular rejection, which was successfully treated with methylprednisolone pulse therapy. One tested cytomegalovirus positive (using the PP65 method), but showed no signs of clinical infection and was treated with ganciclovir. One patient had a biliary leak at the cut surface of the graft which was surgically repaired. Post‐operative bilirubin levels returned to normal in all three transplanted children and no further phototherapy was required. One patient, who was not transplanted but received phototherapy, developed severe neurological damage prior to the start of our living‐related liver transplant programme with a bilirubin level of 450 μmol/L, her sister is still awaiting transplantation. A 14‐yr‐old child with a bilirubin level of 420 μmol/L is presently undergoing phototherapy whilst awaiting orthotopic liver transplantation because of the lack of a suitable living‐related donor. Six siblings of the six children in our series were reported dead by the families. Conclusion: Crigler–Najjar syndrome type I is a relatively common disease in Saudi Arabia for which LRLT is a curative treatment when performed at an early age before the development of kernicterus and neurological deficiency. In countries where there is a severe shortage of cadaveric organs, as is the case in Saudi Arabia, LRLT is the optimum treatment modality for this syndrome." @default.
