Outcomes Following Liver Transplantation for Patients with Alcohol- Versus Nonalcohol-Induced Liver Disease

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To document and compare the outcomes of adult patients who received liver transplants for alcohol- and nonalcohol-induced liver diseases who attended a liver transplantation follow-up clinic in an urban, nontransplantation centre at a time when no formal alcohol abuse program for transplant candidates and/or recipients was offered.
