Optimizing pre-donation physiologic evaluation for enhanced recovery after living liver donation - Systematic review and multidisciplinary expert panel recommendations.

Advancing age (60-69 years) is not a contraindication for liver donation. There is insufficient evidence for a specific pre-donation BMI cut-off. Abbreviated pre-donation physiologic testing is recommended in all candidates. Comprehensive testing is recommended in high-risk candidates while considering the pretest probability in various populations (Quality of evidence; Low to Very Low | Grade of Recommendation; Strong).
