Hepatic perfusion abnormalities after liver transplantation.

B A Porter, E S Woodle, R E Ward

    Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology
    |January 1, 1985
    PubMed
    Summary

    Perioperative hepatic ischemia in liver transplant patients can cause extensive arterial collaterals and unusual shunting. This can lead to partial hepatic infarction, highlighting the need for caution during preoperative angiography.

    Area of Science:

    • Hepatology
    • Transplant Surgery
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Liver transplantation is a complex procedure with potential complications.
    • Perioperative hepatic ischemia can compromise graft function.
    • Angiography and CT scans are crucial for diagnosing vascular complications.

    Observation:

    • A liver transplant patient presented with findings suggestive of perioperative hepatic ischemia.
    • Extensive arterial collaterals and unusual portal-to-hepatic venous shunting were identified in the transplanted liver.
    • Imaging revealed partial right lobe hepatic infarction.

    Findings:

    • Autopsy confirmed partial right lobe hepatic infarction.
    • The study discusses the potential link between ischemic damage and intrahepatic shunting.
    • Imaging findings correlated with clinical and laboratory data.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights a rare complication following liver transplantation.
    • Understanding the relationship between ischemia and shunting is vital for patient management.
    • Preoperative angiography in potential liver transplant recipients requires careful consideration and risk assessment.
