Outcomes of right lobe donors with BMI≥30 for living donor liver transplantation.

We demonstrate that donors with BMI≥30 have similar outcomes compared to BMI < 30 donors with our defined selection criterion, therefore BMI≥30 is not an absolute contraindication to donate right liver, provided that there is no significant steatosis and remnant liver is satisfactory. For potential overweight donors, WL down to BMI < 30 is a reasonable target. Higher biliary complication rates after WL should be investigated further.
