Interventional radiology: management of biliary complications of liver transplantation. Seminars in interventional radiology Kothary, N., Patel, A. A., Shlansky-Goldberg, R. D. 2004; 21 (4): 297-308

Abstract

Major advances in the field of liver transplantation have led to an increase in both graft and patient survival rates. Despite increased graft survival rate, biliary complications lead to significant postoperative morbidity and even mortality. A multidisciplinary approach to these complications is critical. As part of the team approach, less invasive techniques used by the interventional radiologist have an increasing role in the management of complications after liver transplantation. This paper will review the current role of the interventionalist in management of biliary complications.
