Abstract:
Vascular complications after liver transplantation can seriously threaten the survival of patients.In the preoperative assessment and postoperative monitoring of patients' vascular conditions,although the digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is the golden standard for vascular lesion diagnosis,but not the first choice due to traumatic lesions.In some clinical circumstances,DSA can only be used when Doppler ultrasound,spiral CT,and MRI are not applicable,and in most cases DSA is used for treatment rather than diagnosis.This article reviewed the current interventional treatment of vascular complications to stress the important role of DSA in diagnosis and treatment of related complications after liver transplantation.
