The neuropathology of orthotopic liver transplantation: an autopsy series of 16 patients.
To examine the neuropathologic findings seen in the setting of orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) and to asses the role, if any, that the neuropathology had in the patient's death. ⋯ The most common neuropathology findings in this series were related to ischemia and infarction. Neuropathology findings are a significant cause of morbidity, but were only rarely the main cause of death (n = 2) in the OLT patients in this study.
