Every patient with kidney failure requiring dialysis in Germany has the right to at least be evaluated for a transplantation. When an affected person can be considered for a transplantation, it must be clarified which allocation program is the right one for the person and whether a living organ donor can be considered. It should also be individually discussed with patients which type of donor organ should be accepted. Following a transplantation an individualized immunosuppression is relevant not only for the long-term survival of the transplant but also for the adherence of the patient. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Die primären hepatobiliären Malignome sind das hepatozelluläre Karzinom, das Cholangiokarzinom und das seltene Hepatozellulär-Cholangiokarzinom (Mischtumor). Je nach Entität unterscheiden sich die Indikationen und Erfolgsaussichten einer Lebertransplantation erheblich. Die Behandlung dieser Tumoren wird zudem häufig durch eine zugrunde liegende Lebererkrankung kompliziert. Das Ziel dieser Übersichtsarbeit ist es, Transplantationsindikation, Bridging-Behandlungen und transplantationsspezifische Aspekte sowie die Regeln zur Organvergabe für jede Erkrankung im Einzelnen darzustellen.

Primary hepatobiliary malignancies are hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma and the rare hepatocellular cholangiocarcinoma (mixed tumor). The indications for liver transplantation and the oncological prognosis differ considerably between these tumor entities. Treatment and decision making for these tumors are often complicated by an underlying chronic liver disease. The aim of this review is to delineate the indications for transplantation and bridging therapies for each cancer entity as well as to highlight some aspects pertinent to transplantation, such as the principles of organ allocation.
