  •   Objective   To summarize the clinical experience of immunosuppressive therapy for recipients suffering from psoriasis after liver transplantation.   Methods   Five patients diagnosed with cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) complicated with psoriasis after liver transplantation were recruited in this clinical trial. All participants were positive for serum biomarkers of hepatitis B virus (HBV). Induction therapy was adopted before surgery. Immunosuppressive regime of tacrolimus (FK506), mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and adrenal cortical hormone (hormone)was implemented early after surgery. The hormone use was terminated within 1 week. Three cases of cirrhosis complicated with HCC due to chronic HBV infection were gradually switched to sirolimus substitution treatment within 1 month after liver transplantation. Two patients with cirrhosis were administered with FK506 with or without MMF following liver transplantation. All patients received anti-HBV therapy. Baseline data, changes in psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) score and adjustment of postoperative immunosuppressive agents were analyzed.   Results   Five patients undergoing transplantation were followed up until the submission date with a mean duration of (8.3±1.5) years and survived. Compared with preoperative values, PASI score was significantly reduced at postoperative 6 months (P<0.05). Two patients with cirrhosis had recurrent psoriasis at 2 years after liver transplantation. PASI score was significantly increased and steadily declined after sirolimus substitution therapy. These patients remained physically stable and did not progress at postoperative 3 years. Three patients suffering from cirrhosis complicated with HCC presented with no recurrence of psoriasis postoperatively.   Conclusions   Sirolimus-based immunosuppressive therapy can effectively control the progression of psoriasis in liver transplantation recipients. Anti-HBV treatment should be simultaneously implemented for HBV positive patients.
