Two-stage liver transplantation in a surgically complicated liver failure patient after hepatic tumor resection -A case report-
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two-stage liver transplantation, involving a total hepatectomy with a temporary portocaval shunt followed by liver transplantation, requires intensive perioperative care, especially during the prolonged anhepatic period. The pathophysiology and management of this prolonged anhepatic state is not fully elucidated and the proper management during this period is a great challenge to clinicians in the intensive care unit and anesthesiologists. We report a case and management of a total hepatectomy with a temporary portocaval shunt followed by living-donor liver transplantation in a patient with a surgically complicated liver failure after a hepatic tumor resection.
