Abstract

Abstract

Sarcopenia is often observed in patients with end-stage liver disease such as advanced liver cancer. This complication is associated with mortality rate in the perioperative period of liver transplantation, and limited liver resources require traditional evaluation systems to further improve the survival rate of the transplant cohort. Summarization and evaluation of skeletal muscular pathology and diagnosis and treatment strategies show that as a body composition parameter that can effectively predict the survival of patients, skeletal muscle can help to optimize the sequence of transplantation cohorts and surgical benefits in combination with liver function assessment scale. The specific mechanism of related death remains unclear, the diagnostic indicators are gradually streamlined, and there is no treatment strategy that can reverse the mortality rate. Based on the existing literature, sarcopenia is one of the important parameters for determining candidates for liver transplantation.
