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

Figure 38 Post-operative hepatic artery stenosis in a patient with persistent graft dysfunction, 2 mo post-living donor liver transplantation. A: Doppler US image showing arterial velocity jet at the graft hilum; B: Doppler US image showing damped intra-hepatic arterial flow (tardus parvas waveform); C: MDCT angiography, volume rendering image, showing significant anastomotic stricture; D: Conventional angiography showing tight anastomotic stricture (arrow); E: Conventional angiography after stent placement (arrow); F: Doppler US image performed during the procedure showing normal intrahepatic arterial waveform after stent placement. HA: Hepatic artery.
