Background: Despite multiple techniques, portal vein (PV) inflow reconstruction during living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for patients with biliary atresia (BA) and small-diameter PV remains a challenge. The use of PV interposition grafts has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy to mitigate complications and reinterventions.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective multi-center cohort study of patients under 3 years of age (n=85) undergoing LDLT for biliary atresia using PV interposition grafts.

Candidaemia in children is associated with high mortality. The epidemiology of Candida bloodstream infection is changing with rising rates of fluconazole resistance worldwide and the emergence of novel multidrug-resistant species such as Candida auris, which is associated with outbreaks. Guidelines on the management of candidaemia emphasise identification of species and determination of antifungal susceptibility to guide appropriate treatment, performing relevant investigations to rule out deep-seated infection, and removal of central venous catheters.

Study Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis.
Objective: To determine whether venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis is necessary after spine trauma and to assess the efficacy and safety profiles of anticoagulation agents.
Summary Of Background Data: Venous stasis, endothelial disruption, hypercoagulability, and orthopedic injury in spine trauma predispose 12%-64% of patients to deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

The rising global incidence of kidney failure has increased the demand for long-term hemodialysis, which requires reliable vascular access. While arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are typically preferred, alternative approaches are needed when autogenous options are exhausted. The use of translocated autologous saphenous vein (SV) conduits has been predominantly documented in developed countries but rarely employed in developing nations, including Vietnam.
