ABSTRACT

Background: The only therapeutic option for patients with hepatic graft failure is retransplant. In Mexico, the number of hepatic transplants is scarce and is even less for retransplants. There are no reports of patients with good results after hepatic retransplant. Here we present the first published case.
Clinical case: We present the case of a 32-year-old male who was transplanted initially for secondary hepatic cirrhosis, sclerosing primary cholangitis and hepatitis C and retransplanted 4 months and 18 days later for severe rejection of the transplant that did not respond to rescue immunosuppressant therapy. After 3 years, 4 months and 4 days the patient shows a good general status. We describe the patient’s clinical evolution.
