The independent risk factors for postoperative CDAD were identified.RESULTS： Postoperative CDAD occurred in 11 （5%）patients. Median onset of CDAD was postoperative d 19（range, 5-54）. In the multivariate analyses, male gender （odds ratio, 4.56） and serum creatinine （≥ 1.5 mg/dL,odds ratio, 16.0） independently predicted postoperative CDAD.CONCLUSION： CDAD should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with postoperative diarrhea after LDLT.展开更多
