7. Early Vs Late HAT
EARLY <2%
< 30 days
LATE 2-20%
>30 days
Transminitis Fever
Bile Leaks Transminitis
Liver Abscess Cholangitis
PNF Liver Abscess
Hepatic Necrosis Biliary Stricture
11. Arterial complications
Resuscitation
Antibiotics, antifungals
Early HAT – exploration , thrombectomy, revision
IR-Catheter related thrombolysis – bleeding
Re Transplantation
Late HAT – IR – Plasty / Stenting
Retransplantation
23. Bile Leaks
Bile leaks
Depends on volume
ERCP- sphincterotomy, stenting
Controlled fistula
Consequences – infection, HAT/PA, late
strictures
24. Anastamotic strictures
Within the first year
Technical issues , mismatch, fibrosis, HAT
Consequences – cholangitis, sepsis
ERCP / Surgery
25. Non anastamotic stictures
+ / - HAT
Ischemic and necrotic biliary tree
NHBD/> CIT
High mortality
Needs a Re transplant
26.
27. Summary
A high degree of suspicion is required
Prevention is better – avoid technical errors
Interventional Radiology plays a major role
these days
Multi Disciplinary team approach is required

31. Bile Duct Reconstruction
Duct to duct – preferred , no reflux, anatomical,
Roux – en-Y Hep J
Insufficient length
Ischemic duct
PSC
Pediatric
Multiple ducts ( LDLT)
Editor's Notes
Bile leak – mostly within a month, tension in anastamosis, ischemic bile ducts
Anastamotic strictres – 1st year, , intially post op edema, technique,
NAS – trt- repeated dilatation & stenting, retransplantation
