Results All the recipients had stability of dynamic circulation, short anhepatic phase and decreased hemorrhage during operation. Postoperatively all the patients recovered quickly with good liver function without any complications. Conclusions Venacavoplasty may overcome outflow block in piggy back liver transplantation and the technique can shorten anhepatic phase and decrease complications.
