Zusammenfassung

Die histopathologische Diagnostik der Leberbiopsie bildet einen wichtigen Grundstein der Diagnose und des Managements von Komplikationen im Verlauf der allogenen Lebertransplantation. In diesem Artikel werden histopathologische Schädigungsmuster unter Berücksichtigung neuer Aspekte aus der Literatur dargestellt. Innerhalb des Themengebiets der Transplantatabstoßung gilt der so genannten späten zellulären Abstoßung ein besonderes Interesse, wobei die histologischen Kriterien sich von der akuten zellulären Abstoßung unterscheiden und es eine Überlappung mit der De-novo-Autoimmunhepatitis und der idiopathischen Posttransplantationshepatitis zu geben scheint. Die zentrale Perivenulitis gilt als typisches Zeichen der späten zellulären Abstoßung und sollte differenzialdiagnostisch zu toxischen Zone-3-Nekrosen abgegrenzt werden. Neben der Abstoßungsproblematik ergeben sich vaskuläre und biliäre Veränderungen aus chirurgischen Komplikationen oder Folgen der immunsuppressiven Therapie. Des Weiteren spielt die Rekurrenz der zur Transplantation führenden Grunderkrankung eine wichtige Rolle. Insbesondere können auch kombinierte Schädigungsbilder vorkommen und stellen eine besondere Herausforderung an den Pathologen dar.
