Abstract:
Biliary tract complications occurred after liver transplantation have been the well-known causes of the substantial morbidity and mortality. It has been widely accepted that biliary drainage, balloon dilation and stent placement are useful interventional techniques for the treatment of biliary tract complications. Biliary tract complications are more likely to be complex and to have multiple causes. For the interventional radiologists, a further understanding of the mechanism, pathology, classification and diagnosis of the biliary complications is very helpful in reasonably working out the appropriate therapeutic strategy in order to improve the clinical success rate of liver transplantation.
