| Popis: | Although the Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score has been used to evaluate mortality of patients on the waiting list for liver transplantation, it has not established if it correlates with post-liver transplantation prognosis. The aim of this study is to assess if there is a relationship between pretransplantation MELD and post-transplantation results, especially regarding 30-day post-LT survival rates. We analyzed data from 172 patients who underwent deceased-donor liver transplantation between February 2013 and May 2015 in a single center. The sample was divided in two groups according to their MELD scores: group 1, with MELD |
