En Bloc Simultaneous Liver-Kidney Transplantation Compared to the Traditional Technique: Results From a Single Center.

Background: Simultaneous liver-kidney transplantation is indicated for patients with concomitant end-stage liver disease and end-stage renal disease. The traditional technique involves separate implantations of the liver and the kidney. In the en bloc approach, the liver is recovered en bloc with the right kidney and the donor renal artery is anastomosed to the donor splenic artery.

Liver Transplantation for Adenomatosis: A Single-Center Experience.

Background: Liver adenomatosis is characterized by multiple adenomas diffusely distributed throughout the liver parenchyma. Studies addressing liver transplantation for those cases are scarce, and the criteria used to indicate transplantation are still debatable.

Objective: To report a single-center experience of liver transplantation for diffuse adenomatosis.

Retransplantation for Late Hepatic Artery Thrombosis: Results from a Single Center.

Background: Hepatic artery thrombosis is the most common vascular complication of liver transplantation. When occurring late in the postoperative course, it may have no clinical repercussions, and conservative treatment may be implemented. Some patients, however, will develop severe biliary complications due to ischemic cholangiopathy and require retransplantation.

Liver Transplantation for Benign Massive Hepatomegaly: Results From a Single Center and Contribution of the Left-to-Right Piggyback Approach.

Introduction: Polycystic liver disease and giant hepatic hemangioma may present with severe symptom burden and indicate orthotopic liver transplantation. The left-to-right piggyback approach is a useful technique for performing total hepatectomy of enlarged livers.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to analyze the results of liver transplantation in patients with benign massive hepatomegaly.

Life-Threatening Ruptured Hepatic Artery Pseudoaneurysm Post-Liver Transplant: A Case Report.

Background: Hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm after liver transplantation is a rare condition that can lead to spontaneous bleeding, depending on its extent and location. Treatment involves endovascular and surgical approaches in addition to liver retransplantation in cases of graft failure.

Case Report: A 42-year-old female underwent deceased donor liver transplantation due to cryptogenic cirrhosis and schistosomiasis with an uneventful postoperative course.
