Arterial anastomosis in LDLT: techniques and risks.
Reconstructing the hepatic artery in adult living donor liver transplantation is technically challenging, with complications leading to significant morbidity and mortality. Early arterial thrombosis can result in a mortality rate up to 50%, often necessitating re-transplantation. The most common techniques for arterial anastomosis include end-to-end reconstruction with interrupted or continuous sutures, either using magnifying loupes or a microscope. Although microscopes provide enhanced precision, they do not significantly reduce early thrombosis rates compared to loupes but increase surgical time. Overall, surgeons can achieve early thrombosis rates below 1% with experience and evolving techniques.
期刊介绍:
Updates in Surgery (UPIS) has been founded in 2010 as the official journal of the Italian Society of Surgery. It’s an international, English-language, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the surgical sciences. Its main goal is to offer a valuable update on the most recent developments of those surgical techniques that are rapidly evolving, forcing the community of surgeons to a rigorous debate and a continuous refinement of standards of care. In this respect position papers on the mostly debated surgical approaches and accreditation criteria have been published and are welcome for the future.
Beside its focus on general surgery, the journal draws particular attention to cutting edge topics and emerging surgical fields that are publishing in monothematic issues guest edited by well-known experts.
Updates in Surgery has been considering various types of papers: editorials, comprehensive reviews, original studies and technical notes related to specific surgical procedures and techniques on liver, colorectal, gastric, pancreatic, robotic and bariatric surgery.
