Living donor liver transplant and biliary complication outcomes study
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at what factors lead to “biliary complications” (problems involving the bile ducts that help move bile from the liver) after an adult living-donor liver transplant. It’s aimed at people who had this specific type of transplant at the study hospital in Egypt.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be an adult (older than 18 years) at the time of transplant
- Have had a living-donor liver transplant at Al-Rajhy Liver Hospital, Assiut University (Egypt)
- Do not be a child receiving a liver transplant
- Do not have had a transplant using a deceased (cadaveric) donor

This study looks at living donor liver transplant care and follows patients for about 3 years to see how they do over time. If you had (or are scheduled for) a living donor liver transplant and can be followed long-term, this trial may be able to collect your outcomes.
This study is for people with severe liver cirrhosis who are getting a liver transplant from a living donor. It looks at the risk of bleeding or clotting problems after the transplant, to help doctors better manage these risks.
This study compares two ways of connecting the bile duct during a liver transplant to see which leads to a smoother recovery. It is for adults having a planned first transplant from a deceased donor.
This trial studies how doctors manage bleeding before, during, and after liver transplant surgery. The goal is to improve safety and outcomes for people receiving a new liver.
This trial studies whether using an “ex vivo perfusion” process—keeping a donor liver alive outside the body before transplant—can improve outcomes for certain people who need a liver transplant but have limited options. It may help patients who are too high-risk for standard transplant timing or options, including some cancer-related liver disease cases.
This study follows liver transplant recipients and living donors over time to track their health outcomes. It aims to understand their recovery and long-term wellbeing.
