CHAPTER 8 | LIVERDISORDERS
of LT. All patients should have a cardiovascular assessment including electrocardiogram and transthoracic echocardiography plus consideration of coronary angiography and cardiopulmonary exercise testing in selected cases. Respiratory work- up includes chest X- ray, spirometry, and, when necessary, assessment of hepatopulmonary syndrome (which resolves with LT) and portopulmonary hypertension (which may improve with LT in certain cases [e.g. responders to pulmonary vasodilators]). HRS is usually a reversible cause of renal failure that responds to LT but should be carefully dierentiated from other causes of AKI.
Infectious complications are the leading cause of early post- LT mortality, and their prevention includes careful pre- operative screening and treatment of infection alongside post- operative antimicrobial prophylaxis. Active bacterial, fungal, and viral infection represent absolute contraindications to LT, and the potential recipient should rst be treated until there is clear radiological, clinical, and microbiological evidence of resolution.
Historically, PVT was considered an absolute contraindication to LT. However, improvements in medical care, surgical techniques, and radiological interventions now mean that patients transplanted with PVT have equivalent outcomes to those without.
A past history of treated cancer should not disqualify candidates from LT although a ve- year interval between curative cancer treatment and LT is preferred.

50. B. Hepatic artery thrombosis (HAT)
• HAT occurs in 1%– 7% of patients after LT
• Early HAT (<21days post- transplantation) usually presents as graft dysfunction and is a
common indication for urgent liver re- transplantation
The HA is reconstructed during LT. Stenotic lesions of the HA can cause signicant ischaemic injury of which HAT is the most common cause, occurring in 1%– 7% of patients following LT. Early HAT (<21days post LT) often presents as graft dysfunction with markedly elevated liver enzymes, jaundice, acidosis, and hypoglycaemia. Collateralization is more common in late HAT, which presents more insidiously with bile duct strictures (ischaemic cholangiopathy) and resultant biliary sepsis or abscess formation. Risk factors for HAT include smoking, increasing donor age, low donor weight, multiple arterial anastomoses, and previous HAT. CT angiography is the gold standard for diagnosis. Early diagnosis of HAT reduces septic complications, multi- organ failure and graft loss. Treatment of HAT is centred upon urgent establishment of the arterial circulation (if possible) with surgical revascularization, to reduce complications related to ischaemic cholangiopathy. However, more than 50% of cases of early HAT require urgent re- transplantation. Prevention of HAT post- LT includes the use of long- term antiplatelet agents, smoking avoidance, and tight control of atherosclerotic risk factors.

• Identifying patients at risk of malnutrition is a key component of care
• The MUST score is a validated tool for assessing risk of malnutrition and to trigger intervention
Malnutrition is common in health and social care settings, in older people, and in those with disease. It remains underdiagnosed and undertreated, yet is associated with increased healthcare utilization, costs, and poorer outcomes. Approximately one third of patients admitted to hospitals across the UK are at risk of malnutrition.
The MUST is a simple- to- use, validated tool to identify those patients at highest risk of malnutrition and to trigger intervention to reverse further nutritional decline (Table 9.1).

The total score ranges from 0– 6 (0=Low Risk, =Medium Risk, 2 or more=High Risk). Based on the risk score, patients may receive routine clinical care (Low Risk), observation of dietary intake and
reassessment (Medium Risk), or immediate referral to dietitian/ Nutrition Support Team (High Risk).

2. D. Olmesartan
• Angiotensin II receptor antagonists, such as olmesartan and telmisartan, can cause villous atrophy, leading to severe diarrhoea and weight loss
• Tissue transglutaminase antibodies are likely to be negative, although most will have a predisposing coeliac HLA type (HLA DQ2 or DQ8)

• Most patients rapidly improve upon discontinuation of the culprit medication
Diarrhoea is a potential side eect of all the listed medications. Olmesartan and telmesartan have both been reported to cause a sprue- like illness with diarrhoea, substantial weight loss, and seronegative villous atrophy, mimicking coeliac disease. Microscopic colitis and lymphocytic gastritis may also be present. Symptoms are often present for years before the drug responsible is identied. Most patients improve clinically, with resolution of the villous atrophy, upon discontinuing the drug.
Non- steroidal anti- inammatory drugs, such as ibuprofen, commonly cause diarrhoea as well as duodenitis, but would not be expected to cause villous atrophy. Thyroxine in excess can cause diarrhoea. However, the TSH is normal in this case. Metformin and simvastatin can both cause diarrhoea, but not villous atrophy.

3. E. Trial of nasojejunal feeding
• Nasojejunal feeding should be strongly considered prior to placement of a surgical jejunostomy for gastroparesis
Gastroparesis is most commonly idiopathic, diabetic, or post- surgical. It aects women more than men and leads to overall shortened survival compared with age- and sex- matched controls. Gastric emptying should be considered delayed if retention on scintigraphy is more than 60% at two hours or 10% at four hours.
Nutritional management is multi- disciplinary and involves close liaison with specialist dietitians. When oral dietary modications have failed, enteral tube feeding should be considered. This usually entails post- pyloric feeding. Atrial of nasojejunal feeding to prove the patient is able to meet their nutritional requirements should be strongly considered prior to placement of a surgical jejunostomy. This is because some patients will have pan- enteric dysmotility and may not tolerate post- pyloric feeding. Parenteral nutrition should not be considered rst- line therapy for isolated gastroparesis.
Eating disorders may manifest with similar symptoms, but there is no suggestion in this case that urgent psychiatric evaluation is necessary. The anticholinergic side eects of amitriptyline may worsen the patient’s symptoms. Following an alert from the European Medicines Authority, long­term treatment with prokinetics, such as metoclopramide or domperidone, is not advised.

4. C. Buried bumper syndrome should be suspected if the enteral feed pump alarms regularly
• Buried bumper syndrome is an avoidable complication of gastrostomy placement
• It can be prevented by regular advancement of the tube 5– 10cm and gentle rotation but not within the rst seven days of placement
• Endoscopic techniques form the mainstay of management
For patients requiring enteral tube feeding for longer than 4– 6 weeks, gastrostomy insertion should be considered. While endoscopic placement is usually preferred, some patients may require radiological or surgical placement— for example, if the stomach is inaccessible endoscopically.
Buried bumper syndrome is a preventable complication whereby the internal xator becomes buried within the gastric mucosa or at the surface of the skin. It is more common with internal
