Abstract:
:Adequate hepatopetal portal vein blood flow is obligatory to ensure proper liver function after liver transplantation. Large collateral veins as shunts impair portal vein flow and even cause hepatofugal blood flow and portal steal syndrome. In particular, splenorenal shunts in liver transplant recipients can lead to allograft dysfunction and possible allograft loss or hepatic encephalopathy. Restoration of portal flow through left renal vein ligation (LRVL) is a treatment option, which is much easier compared to splenectomy, renoportal anastomosis and shunt closure, but bears the risk of moderate and temporary impairment of renal function. In addition, a patent portal vein is mandatory for LRVL. However, although LRVL has been reported to be an effective, safe and easy method to control portacaval shunts and increase hepatopetal flow in some studies, indications and safety are still not clear. In this review, we summarize existing studies on LRVL during liver transplantation.
