Abstract:
A group of 22 liver transplantation patients were examined pre- and postoperatively using clinical neurological, neurophysiological and neuroradiological methods. After the operation improvement was observed in neurological symptoms, and in neuropsychological and neurophysiological test results. Our study shows that liver recipients have a high prevalence of nervous system dysfunction and that successful transplantation is followed by significant improvement.
