4:03 PM Abstract No. 89 Single-center experience in hepatic vein stenting for hepatic venous outflow obstruction in transplanted livers: a retrospective analysis

Hepatic venous outflow obstruction is a feared complication of liver transplantation that can lead to failure of the graft and development of posthepatic portal hypertension and associated complications, such as ascites. This complication is seen from 5.3 to 12.9% of patients post liver transplantation. We aim to retrospectively evaluate the efficacy and patency of hepatic vein stenting for hepatic venous outflow obstruction post liver transplantation.
