Abstract
We present a case of a 63-year-old male with HCC developed on viral cirrhosis (HVB-HVD) Child C, MELD 15 who was performed a cadaveric orthotopic liver transplantation (marginal graft previous perfused and oxygenated using the Liver Assist Device). After one month, in the context of a febrile episode, the patient was discovered a biliary stenosis associated with biliary fistulae for which he was placed a biliary stent (ERCP). The afterwards abdominal CT revealed absence of the visualization of the graft common hepatic artery and its intrahepatic branches. An arteriography in an emergency manner was performed, with administration of Actylise, and then continued with Ilomedin and Heparin administration, but with no improved imaging appearance. The patient underwent a liver retransplantation - the arterial anastomose was performed between the donor superior mesenteric artery (due to the anatomical variant: accessory right hepatic artery from superior mesenteric artery) and the recipient infrarenal aorta (using iliac cadaveric arterial graft). 18 months after the retransplantation, the CT scan revealed homogeneous hepatic graft and permeable vascular axis.
期刊介绍:
Starting with this issue "Annals of Fundeni Hospital", founded in 1996 as the scientific journal of the prestigious hospital Fundeni becomes "Journal of Translational Medicine and Research" (JTMR), an Journal of the Academy of Medical Sciences of Romania. Therefore, an 18 years old Journal, attested and indexed in Elsevier Bibliographic Databases, Amsterdam and also indexed in SCOPUS, is continuing a tradition of excellence that lasted almost two decades. The new title of the Journal is inspired first of all from the important developments of translational research In Fundeni Clinical Institute and the "C.C Iliescu Institute for Cardio-Vascular Diseases", in parallel with the national and international trend to promote and develop this important area or medical research. Although devoted mainly to translational research, JTMR will continue to promote both basic and clinical research.
