Doppler ultrasonography in living donor liver transplantation recipients: Intra- and post-operative vascular complications

Figure 34 Intra-operative dissection of the recipient hepatic artery. A: IOUS B-mode image in axial and longitudinal scans, showing circumferential dissection of the recipient HA with 2 parallel echogenic intimal flaps seen within; B: Color Doppler image, showing a characteristic double-hump early presystolic pulse waveform, signifying ongoing dissection, that necessitates revision of the anastomosis. HA: Hepatic artery.
