Prostaglandins for adult liver transplanted patients

An evaluation of the safety and preliminary efficacy of peri‐ and post‐operative treprostinil in preventing ischemia and reperfusion injury in adult orthotopic liver transplant recipients

“…The renal function evaluated by serum creatinine levels was similar in both control and treprostinil groups. Our results are in agreement with the recent publication by Cochrane et al that PGs significantly minimized the risk of acute kidney failure 17 …”

The Effect and Safety of Prostaglandin Administration in Pediatric Liver Transplantation

“…Yet, later on, the majority of studies did not support a direct effect of PGE on primary nonfunction. 5,6,8,11,12,14,15 In our study, there was no primary nonfunction event; therefore, the effect of dinoprostone could not be evaluated. Greig et al 13 also showed a more rapid decrease of AST and ALT.…”

“…5,8,11,12,14 A 2011 Cochrane analysis reported an important risk of bias in most trials reviewed. 15 An expensive multicenter controlled study should be carried out, yet on a drug that has fairly consistently failed to show benefit, and thus is highly unlikely to be realized.…”

Use of Cidofovir for Safe Transplantation in a Toddler with Acute Liver Failure and Adenovirus Viremia

“…Cidofovir was well tolerated in our patient without nephrotoxicity. Probenecid and prostaglandin infusion were used in our patient and perhaps afforded renal protection [ 23 , 24 ].…”
