“…At the time of the study the average age was 56±15.1 years (24-82). The average follow-up time was 16±4.1 years (10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25).…”

“…It is also of paramount importance to determine whether the LT is able to restore the QOL [4,13]. Several studies have evaluated the various aspects of QOL after LT, such as growth and development, return to school and work, sex life and hormonal changes, both in short-term and long-term after the transplant [3,[14][15][16][17][18][19]. These studies have documented a significant QOL improvement, with most patients returning to normal life.…”

“…There is, however, little information on the long-term QOL in patients after LT in Latin America [7][8][9][14][15][16]. Long-term follow-up for LT has been defined as at least 5 years duration based on average, median or final recorded time of follow-up [3].…”

Aim: This study goal was to evaluate the long-term quality of life of patients who underwent cadaveric liver transplants (CLT) in two Brazilian hospitals. Methods: Medical records of all patients who underwent CLT and survived over 10 years were revised. The international validated questionnaire Short-Form 36 was employed to assess the quality of life. Patients data were obtained from electronic medical records and study protocols. Results: A total of 342 patients underwent CLT, of which 129 were alive and 93 fully answered the questionnaire and were included in the study. The group consisted of 62 men (66.6%) and 31 women (33.4%), with average age of 40.1±15.9 years. Follow-up time was 16±4.1 years. The most common indication of CLT was hepatic cirrhosis caused by hepatitis C virus, 24.7%. Transplanted patients had lower scores than the general population in mental health [62.9 (95%CI: 60.1-65.7,) vs. 74.5, p < 0.001]. In all other domains, transplanted patients had similar (emotional aspect limitiation, pain, and general health status) or superior (physical aspect limitation, social aspects, functional capacity, and vitality) scores than the general population. Functional capacity score was lower in patients with long-term complications, who were aged more than 50-years, and unemployed. Conclusions: The quality of life in patients with more than 10 years after CLT was similar or superior than the general population, except for the mental health domain.
