Abstract:
Objective To investigate the key steps of hepatic artery reconstruction and the factors influencing the outcome of hepatic artery reconstruction in orthotopic liver transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 107 consecutive orthotopic liver transplantation patients was retrospectively reviewed to assess the key steps in hepatic artery reconstruction. The risk factors and the diagnosis and treatment of vascular complications were also discussed. Results The incidence of hepatic artery related complications in orthotopic liver transplantation was associated with the quality of the donor hepatic artery,the method used for anastomosis and the use of microsurgical technique. The main hepatic artery related complications were hepatic artery thrombosis and stenosis. The incidence of the vascular complications was 6.54%,and the mortality rate was 85.7%. Conclusion The major influence factors of vascular complications were the quality of the donor artery,the reconstruction way of donor-recipient artery and the use of microsurgical technique .
