We aimed to examine variations in public acceptance of LDLT based on patient diagnosis, including unresectable colorectal liver metastases (uCRLM).MethodsA web‐based survey collected demographic information and general perceptions about organ donation in different settings. Respondents indicated their likelihood of being a living liver donor for a family member with genetic liver disease, alcohol‐related liver disease (ALD), and uCRLM. Differences in the likelihood of donation between scenarios were compared.ResultsThere were 491 survey respondents (female [76.5%], Caucasians [87.4%], and had at least a college degree [98.2%]). Most (82.4%) were aware of the option of living liver donation before the study and 95% supported living organ donation in general. Over 80% were registered as organ donors. Ninety percent indicated that they would be likely to donate to a family member with a genetic liver disease if they qualified as a living donor; significantly more than ALD (59%) and uCRLM (71%) (p < 0.001). Willingness to donate to patients with uCRLM was significantly higher (p < 0.001) than the hypothetical patient with ALD with a clinically accepted recovery period of 6 months.ConclusionsThis study is the first of its kind to assess the public acceptance of living liver donation for uCRLM. Respondents were as or more supportive of donating to uCRLM as they were of generally accepted indications for LT. Further surveys with a broader respondent pool are warranted. 10.1111/ctr.70013 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor |
