Abstract:
Vascular complications by compromising the blood flow to the allograft can have significant and sometimes life-threating consequences for the patient. High level of suspicion and aggressive utilization of diagnostic modalities can lead to early diagnosis and salvage of the allograft. This review will summarize the current trends in the management of vascular complications after liver transplantation. Current trends show an increase in the utilization of endovascular interventions initially to address vascular complications after liver transplantation. Operative repair still has its major role, especially if endovascular procedures fail.
