Abdominal complications detected on MDCT after liver transplantation in early and late periods

1. To review imaging findings of abdominal complications detected on MDCT after liver transplantation in early (within the first 90 days) and late periods (after 90 days). 2. To emphasize the importance of reviewing radiologic features in the abdominal complications after liver transplantation compared between early and late period. 3. To review pitfalls in CT interpretations to assess abdominal complications after liver transplantation. 1) Radiologic features of abdominal complication on MDCT after liver transplantation in early phase (1) Vascular complications: HA stenosis or thrombus, PV stenosis, active bleeding (2) Bi l iary complications: anastomosis site leakage, anastomosis site stricture, T-tube site leakage, T-tube site stricture (3) Liver parenchymal complications (4) Adrenal hematoma 2) Radiologic features of abdominal complication on MDCT after liver transplantation in late phase (1) Vascular complications: HA or PV stenosis (2) Bi l iary complications: anastomosis site leakage, anastomosis site stricture, CBD stone, biliary cast (3) Liver parenchymal complications: recurrent HCC, hepatic abscess (4) Bowel disease: small bowel obstruction (5) Others: Lymphoma, incisional hernia 3) Benefits and pitfalls of abdominal CT imaging interpretations after liver transplantation SE 01 AB-02 Role of MDCT in the detection of abdominal complications after liver transplantation compared with early and late periods Inseon Lee, So Hyun Park, Seung Joon Choi, Youngsup Shim, Chang Rae Kim Gachon University Gil Medical Center, Gil Medical Center, Gachon University Gil Hospital, Korea.
