ABSTRACT
Biliary complication (BC) after liver transplantation has attracted increased attention from a clinical and research perspective.BC,which affects the long-term outcome of the liver transplant,includes diseases of biliary stricture,biliary obstruction,biliary fistula,and many more that need an operation or interventional therapy.The occurrence of these diseases is related to the surgical operation,biliary tract variation,vessel injury,and quality of the donor graft.This article reviews BC and its etiology,diagnosis,and therapy in order to help future clinical and experimental studies.
ABSTRACT
It is a consensus to place stent after cutting bile duct in the hepatobiliary surgery in the past.However,as the development of bile physiological research and surgical technique,especially the raise of medical concepts of rapid recovery,the negative effects which are caused by the placement of stent have been taken seriously gradually.Up to now,whether the stent should be placed after the bile duct is cut has no definite answer yet.
