Living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is now recognized as an important option for fatal liver diseases including fulminant hepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Biliary complications including bile leakage, anastomotic stenosis, biloma, or stone formation are known as the most common complication after liver transplantation. Among them hepaticojejunal biliary anastomotic strictures are often encountered and can be treated safely by percutaneous balloon dilatation with temporary tube stenting. In our percutaneous balloon dilatation cases with hepaticojejunal biliary anastomotic stricture, technical success rate is 67% and a patency rate of 72% is obtained.
LDLT will continue to be an important therapy for severe liver diseases because of the small number of cadaver organs available in our country. Interventional radiology plays an important role in achieving successful results of LDLT.
