abstract = {China Liver Transplant Registry (CLTR) is the official national liver transplant registry in Mainland China that has been authorized by the National Health and Family Planning Commission of the People’s Republic of China (NHFPC) and serves for both regulatory and scientific purposes. The CLTR 2011 annual scientific reports released national statistics describing current status of liver transplant (LT) in China. This article, as an accompanying document of CLTR 2011 annual scientific report, provides an overview of scientific results for LT in China. Up to December 2011, a total number of 20,877 LT performed during 1980-2011 in 81 certified transplant centers had been reported to CLTR. Of these donated livers, 92.63% were procured from deceased donors (N=19,338) and 7.37% were from living donors (N=1,539). In March 2010, the pilot project of the new deceased organ donation was initiated. From the initiation of the pilot program to the end of 2011, there were 115 LT (0.55% of all LT) using the liver grafts from Chinese categories donors. The recipient post-transplant survival had been significantly improved over years. The median post-transplant follow-up was 14.74 months, of which the longest follow-up time was 192.47 months. The 1-year, 3-year and 5-year cumulative survival rate for all recipients was 77.97%, 65.38% and 60.53%, respectively.},
