One of the crucial steps of liver transplantation is to provide the portal inflow. Portal vein thrombosis is the most challenging factor to achieve. Using a pericholedochal varix for portal inflow in a patient with complete portal vein thrombosis in living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is a rare technique. We present our experience of a LDLT with PVT.

The contribution of the gut to the ingestion, production, absorption, and excretion of the extra ammonia and urea-N associated with feeding ("exogenous" fraction) has received limited prior attention. Analysis of commercial pellet food revealed appreciable concentrations of ammonia and urea-N. Long term satiation-feeding increased whole trout ammonia and urea-N excretion rates by 2.

Recently, cases of hepatic pseudoaneurysm rupture caused by double pigtail plastic stents (DPS) have also been reported. The symptoms of pseudoaneurysms are often non-specific, and many cases are diagnosed only after rupture.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), hepatic fibrosis, and portal hypertension constitute an increasing public health problem due to the growing prevalence of obesity and diabetes. C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is an endogenous regulator of cardiovascular homeostasis, immune cell reactivity, and fibrotic disease. Thus, we investigated a role for CNP in the pathogenesis of MASLD.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) constitutes approximately 75-85% of primary liver cancers and is a heavy burden on public health. Many innovative prediction systems have integrated radiomics, artificial intelligence, pathological information, or even genetic information for the stratification and prognosis prediction of patients with HCC. However, these systems still lack practical and clinical applications.
