    Journal: Gastroenterol Hepatol; 1998 Feb; 21(2):88-9. PubMed ID: 9549185.
    Abstract:
    The case of a 36-year old male liver transplant recipient hospitalized for upper digestive hemorrhage, jaundice and pain in the right hypochondrium is herein reported. Two hepatic biopsies had been performed 60 and 7 days prior to admission. Bleeding was observed to be from the biliary tract by endoscopy and an arterioportal fistula in the right hepatic lobe by echo-doppler and arteriography was seen. Treatment with selective embolization by arteriography was satisfactory with biliary tract drainage not being required. Doppler echography was used to control the evolution of the patient.
