As to the origin, 77.5% were from the State of Santa Catarina and 22.5% were from other states of the Federation. From the total patients, 55,86% had MELD higher or equal to 18. The main indication for the transplant was cirrhosis due to hepatitis C (25.6%) and hepatocellular carcinoma (18,6%). Most patients (70.4%) stayed between 0 and 5 days in ICU. The main causes of mortality was 35.93%, without considering the retransplantation; and the main causes of death after the procedure along 6 years was general causes (34.93%), having cardiovascular as prevalent cause (91.25%), followed by insufficiency of multiple organs (3.75%), cerebrovascular (3.75%) and renal causes (1.25%); septic shock (16.59%), coagulation disorders (5.24%), primary dysfunction (3.93%), and causes not informed (35.8%).
