“…The use of the liver explant for domino transplant is well established for familial amyloid polyneuropathy and MSUD. (3,26) This technique could also be extended in selected cases to include organic acidemias and hypercholesterolemia. (27,28) The recent report of successful auxiliary domino transplant from a child with propionic acidemia to correct Crigler-Najjar syndrome raises the possibility of organ exchanges between those with different metabolic diseases.…”

“…The affected liver is usually anatomically and functionally normal and has been reused in domino LT. Over 1000 domino LTs have been performed worldwide using FAP livers. Although immediate operative risks between FAP liver recipients and deceased donor liver recipients are similar, de novo amyloidosis is an increasingly more recognized complication of domino LT. FAP can be transmitted from affected donors to naïve recipients. Patients who receive FAP livers develop sensory neuropathies as early as 7‐8 years after domino LT, as suggested by tissue biopsies .…”

“…In domino donation, modifications of the surgical technique (greater care for the liver explant, possible longer time of surgery and anesthesia, the level of vessel transection, and any need of hepatic venoplasty) and a modification of the preoperative management that is required to obtain a transplantable liver graft (some programs use anticoagulation in the MSUD domino donor) should not expose the MSUD patient to additional risks. Although there are not yet data comparing LT outcomes in MSUD domino donors versus nondonors, the European data showed no differences in morbidity and survival rates in the FAP patients …”

“…Although there are not yet data comparing LT outcomes in MSUD domino donors versus nondonors, the European data showed no differences in morbidity and survival rates in the FAP patients. (4) In this issue of Liver Transplantation, Herden et al (5) describe the outcomes of 15 LTs in MSUD patients (12 children and 3 adults) from whom 14 grafts were used for domino LT in the Eurotransplant area. After 23 months of follow-up, the patient survival rates were 100% for MSUD recipients (all on a free diet) and 93% for domino LT recipients (1 MSUD liver recipient died from tumor recurrence).…”
