Bile duct Reconstruction in Liver Transplant Surgery

Transplantation is done by end-to-end anastomosis of the donor and recipient suprahepatic venae cava, followed by similar end-to-end anastomosis of the infrahepatic venae cavae. Alternatively, an end-to-side anastomosis of the vena cavae may be performed in a piggyback fashion in which the recipient's entire vena cava is left intact. ................
