Arterial Reconstruction in Liver Transplantation with Abnormal Donor Hepatic Artery:Clinical Analysis of 42 Cases / 中国医科大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the influence of abnormal donor hepatic artery on hepatic artery and biliary complications after liver transplanta?tion,and summarize the hepatic artery reconstruction procedures during transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 210 cases of liver transplan?tation conducted in our hospital from May 2005 to April 2015 were retrospectively searched for the study,including 42 with abnormal donor hepatic artery. Results Among the 210 liver transplantation,42 cases exhibited abnormal donor hepatic artery,and the aberration rate was 20.0%. Mean volume of blood flow of abnormal group and normal group was 4.7±95.1 mL/min and 190.9±101.6 mL/min,respectively. There was no statistic differ?ence(P=0.519). Twelve cases had arterial complications,the incidence rate was 5.71%,and there was no statistic difference between each group (χ2=0.72,P>0.05). Twenty five cases got biliary complications,the incidence rate was 11.9%,and there was no statistic differences between each group(χ2=0.05,P>0.05). Conclusion There was no statistic difference of mean volume of blood flow after arterial reconstruction between two groups. Liver transplantation with abnormal arterial reconstruction will not increase the incidence rate of arterial and biliary complications.
