Popis: The aim of this study is to evaluate retrospectively the influence of the different variates in relationship to the success of the surgery, defined as inmediate bile production and survival rate after 48 hs. From November 1991, to July 1992, 25 OLTX were practiced in pigs. Variates were valued in donor and in the recipient group. Variates in the first group were a) ablation time;b)cold isquemic time;c)volume of fluid given;d)back table time. In the second group variates were:a)surgical time;b)by-pass time;c)by-pass flow;d)volume of fluids;e)venous anastomosis time;g)sodium bicarbonate infusion. The logistic regression test was used as statistical analisis. No variates showed statistical significance, although in the last 15 transplants a progresive increase of success was noted. We can conclude, that success obtained in this study may be linked to an adecuate integration of the group, to the uniforming of the anesthesic-clinical-surgical strategy and the progresive training of the surgical technique rather than to the variates included in the study.
