Spontaneous and uneventful anal expulsion of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (e-PTFE) vascular graft after living donor liver transplantation.
Living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is a useful therapeutic option for end-stage liver disease due to the shortage of deceased donor liver grafts, particularly in Asia and Türkiye. Right liver LDLT is frequently performed in adults and some cases require anterior section venous drainage. Synthetic grafts, particularly expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (e-PTFE), are often preferred for venoplasties. Despite its many advantages, some complications associated with these grafts have been reported, such as gastrointestinal tract migration, perforation, and bleeding. Here we present an extremely rare case about an e-PTFE graft.
