Abstract:
:When there is an anatomic anomaly in the biliary tract of the donor for living-donor liver transplantation, the risk of postoperative biliary tract complications increases in both the donor and the recipient. We studied a case of living-donor liver transplantation with a left hepatic lobe graft that had anatomic anomalies, in which the medial segmental branch (B4) joined the anterior segmental branch and the posterior segmental branch formed a common trunk with the lateral segmental branch. A 40-year-old man visited our institution as a candidate organ donor for his mother, who had end-stage liver failure. An anomaly of B4 connecting the anterior segmental branch was suspected on magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography. On intraoperative cholangiography, confluence of B4 with the anterior segmental branch and connection of the posterior and lateral segmental branches forming a common trunk were confirmed. Accordingly, individual anastomoses of the lateral segmental branch and B4 with the recipient jejunum were planned, and a left-lobe graft was excised. The postoperative recovery was smooth, and the donor was discharged with no complications. Even when an anatomic anomaly is present in the donor bile duct, in urgent cases, accurate evaluation through the use of various modalities may enable living-donor liver transplantation with the use of a graft with an anatomic anomaly.
