AIH-primary sclerosing cholangitis patients were more likely to require LT compared with patients having AIH-PBC. Transplant-free survival was similar among the three AIH-overlap syndromes. Allograft recurrence of OS occurred in about 10% of cases. Patients with OS appear to have good short- and medium-term post-LT outcomes in terms of graft function and overall survival.
