Abstract
ARTERIAL reconstruction is essential in liver transplantation (LT). Usually, the donor’s artery is anastomosed to the recipient’s hepatic artery. However, in some patients, usual reconstruction may be impossible because of arcuate ligament, post chemotherapy stenosis of the recipient’s hepatic artery, intimal dissection, or accidental lesion during harvesting. In these cases, we used arterial conduits derived from donor iliac arteries (IA). We compared the results of LT using IA as interposed vessels with those who had direct arterial anastomosis.
