Our centre pioneered the use of liver grafts from very old donors with 26 octogenarian livers being transplanted between 1998 and 2006 and 111 thereafter. The graft survival obtained in those 26 livers had the potential to survive ten or more years after transplant: 15 patients are alive thanks to a liver which is now more than 90, two of those organs being centenarian. Centenarian livers were respectively 84 and 86 years old at the time of transplantation and their recipients are currently 66 and 76.

Abstract
Our centre pioneered the use of liver grafts from very old donors with 26 octogenarian livers being transplanted between 1998 and 2006 and 111 thereafter. The graft survival obtained in those 26 livers had the potential to survive ten or more years after transplant: 15 patients are alive thanks to a liver which is now more than 90, two of those organs being centenarian. Centenarian livers were respectively 84 and 86 years old at the time of transplantation and their recipients are currently 66 and 76.
