  • Title: Venous outflow reconstruction in living-donor liver transplantation for Budd-Chiari syndrome involving vena cava.
    Author: Hata K, Nishio T, Kumagai M, Masano Y, Kageyama S, Okumura S, Ito T, Yamazaki K, Minatoya K, Hatano E.
    Journal: J Hepatobiliary Pancreat Sci; 2024 Aug; 31(8):e47-e50. PubMed ID: 38523247.
    Abstract:
    Ironically, the hepatic vena cava is mostly involved in Budd-Chiari syndrome in the Asia-Pacific region, whereas living-donor liver transplantation is predominant, which cannot replace the hepatic cava. Hata and colleagues introduced a new surgical technique for venous reconstruction in living-donor liver transplantation, providing a novel solution to this longstanding dilemma.
