Sarcopenia plays a crucial role in liver transplantation
Abstract
We are grateful to Pagano et al. for commenting on our recent studies regarding the role of sarcopenia on outcomes after liver transplantation (LT) (1-7), including our recent paper describing the effects of pretransplant sarcopenia and sequential changes in sarcopenic parameters after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) (7).
