Multiple renal arteries in living-donor kidney transplantation create technical challenges, but their effect on clinical outcomes is unclear. This review assessed whether grafts with multiple renal arteries differ in short-term outcomes compared with single renal artery grafts. Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines and PROSPERO registration, a systematic search of PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane CENTRAL was conducted from database inception until 31 October 2025. Studies publishe [...]

Liver transplantation is the definitive treatment for end-stage liver disease, acute liver failure, and selected hepatic malignancies, but its success is limited by a persistent shortage of suitable donor organs. This has driven increased use of extended criteria donors (ECDs), including steatotic and donation after circulatory death (DCD) grafts, which are more susceptible to preservation injury and often inadequately supported by traditional static cold storage (SCS). Machine perfusion (MP) ha [...]

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) offers a potentially curative option for a range of malignant and non-malignant hematological disorders. However, only approximately 25-30% of patients have access to a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related donor (MRD), necessitating alternative donor approaches, including matched unrelated donor (MUD) and haploidentical transplantation. Although advances in haploidentical HSCT have substantially improved donor availability, MUD HSCT continu [...]
