الوصف: Background The French transplant governing system defined “Rescue” (the so‐called “ Hors Tour ”) livers as those livers which were declined for the five top‐listed patients. This study compares the outcomes following liver transplantation (LT) in patients who received a donor liver through a rescue allocation (RA) procedure or according to MELD score priority (standard allocation, SA) and evaluates the impact on the graft pool of a proactive policy to accept RA grafts. Methods Data from all consecutive patients who underwent LT with SA or RA grafts from 2011 to 2015 were compared in terms of short‐ and long‐term outcomes. Results The 249 elective first LTs were performed with 64 (25.7%) RA and 185 (74.3%) SA grafts. RA grafts were obtained from older donors and were associated with a longer cold ischemia time. Recipients of RA livers were older and had lower MELD scores. The rates of delayed graft function, primary nonfunction, retransplantation, complications, and mortality were similar between the RA and SA groups. At 1 and 3 and 5 years, graft and patient survival rates were similar between the groups. These results were maintained after matching on recipient characteristics. Our proactive policy to accept RA grafts increased the liver pool for elective first transplantation by 25%. Conclusions RA livers can be safely transplanted into selected recipients and significantly expand the liver pool.
