Donor bile duct evaluation with magnetic resonance cholangiography in living-donor liver transplantation: a novel anatomical classification for predicting surgical techniques
CONCLUSION: The proposed classification in this study includes all anatomical variations. This inclusive classification accurately predicts the surgical technique for LDLT.PMID:37724709 | DOI:10.4274/dir.2023.232321

Use of gelatin sponge to seal the biliary tract after percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage in patients with liver transplants
Diagn Interv Radiol. 2023 Aug 31. doi: 10.4274/dir.2023.232344. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPercutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) is commonly used in the treatment of malign and benign biliary pathologies. Certain complications after PTBD may occur, such as biliary fistula, biliary leakage, bilioma, and hematoma. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of using a sterile gelatin sponge to seal the biliary tract after PTBD in patients with liver transplants to prevent complications. A total of 131 biliary drainages were introduced in 97 patients, and a sterile gelatin sponge was ...

Immunosuppressive Therapy in Solid Organ Transplantation: Primer for Radiologists and Potential Complications
Radiol Clin North Am. 2023 Sep;61(5):913-932. doi: 10.1016/j.rcl.2023.04.010. Epub 2023 May 23.ABSTRACTThe availability of effective immunosuppressive medication is primarily responsible for the dramatic improvement in long-term graft survival rates after solid organ transplantation. The commonly used drugs include monoclonal/polyclonal antibodies, corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors (cyclosporine and tacrolimus), antimetabolites, mammalian target of rapamycin, and many novel drugs. Prolonged immunosuppression is accompanied by several well-described potentially life-threatening complications. In addition to drug-relat...

Unconventional Strategies for Solid Organ Transplantation and Special Transplantation Scenarios
Radiol Clin North Am. 2023 Sep;61(5):901-912. doi: 10.1016/j.rcl.2023.04.012. Epub 2023 May 19.ABSTRACTSolid organ transplantation is the only long-term therapeutic option for patients with end-organ failure but cadaveric and living donor transplant pools are unable to meet the demand for organ transplantation. Newer techniques, innovative strategies and altruistic donors can help bridge this wide gap between the number of organ donors and recipients. Domino liver transplantation, paired organ donation, and ABO incompatible transplants are some of the ways to ensure increased transplant organ availability. Split liver tran...
