Figure 2 Recipient liver before explantation and portal vein anastomosis.
A: In February 2014, orthotopic liver transplantation was performed. The large size of the donor liver was tolerated because of the enlarged liver size of the patient; B: The main stem of the patient’s portal vein showed no thrombosis. Bicaval anastomosis followed by portal vein anastomosis was performed. The arterial anastomosis was performed to the recipient’s gastroduodenal artery. Biliary drainage was achieved by choledochocholedochostomy. Age of the donor: 36 years; cold ischemia time: 11 h and 54 min.
