  • Title: Hepatic artery interruption followed by portal vein thrombosis in an adult liver transplant.
    Author: Yoshida EM, Erb SR, Morris DC, Wall WJ, Scudamore CH.
    Journal: Transpl Int; 1994; 7(6):434-7. PubMed ID: 7865108.
    Abstract:
    Vascular complications following liver transplantation result in significant morbidity and mortality. We report a 28-year-old man who, because of a mycotic false aneurysm, underwent ligation of the hepatic artery 4.5 weeks post-transplantation and who, 4.5 months later, suffered a portal-mesenteric vein thrombosis. Adverse hepatic sequelae did not follow these events, demonstrating the capacity of the collateral circulation to perfuse the transplanted liver.
