Abstract
Postoperative acute kidney injury after liver transplant (LT) has long-term implications for kidney health. LT recipients are at risk of acute kidney injury due to a number of factors related to the donor liver, intraoperative factors including surgical technique, as well as recipient factors, such as pre-LT kidney function and postoperative complications. This review discusses these factors in detail and their impact on posttransplant kidney function. Long-term risk factors such as calcineurin inhibitors have also been discussed. Additionally, the impact of liver allocation policies on pre- and post-LT kidney health is discussed.
