Abstract
The increasing shortage of liver allografts has led to the development of split liver transplantation. More frequent applications have permitted the resolution of most of its technical complications. A hitherto unreported complication of split liver transplantation, hepatic vein obstruction caused by hypertrophy of a right split-liver adult allograft, is discussed. As surgical correction was impossible, the outflow obstruction was treated successfully with interventional radiology.
