The present clinical experience in perioperative nutrition for patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation was evaluated by a questionnaire, answered by 16/21 European transplant units (76.1%). There is agreement, that malnutrition reflects per se the severity of chronic liver disease and should be not considered, in general, to exclude patients from the transplant waiting list. Most centers administer postoperative nutrition without difference to other patients after gastrointestinal major surgery. A combination of parenteral and enteral nutrition is preferred. Experience with preoperative nutritional support and use of new immunomodulating substances is rather limited.
