Abstract:BackgroundThere are few studies on the hemodynamic changes after orthotopic liver transplantation in rats. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of different suprahepatic vena cava (SHVC) reconstruction methods on the hemodynamics of rats after liver transplantation.Materials and MethodsThree rat liver transplantation groups were created according to the SHVC reconstruction method: Kamada’s two-cuff technique, a modified veno-lined stent technique, and Harihara’s three-cuff technique. Ten rats of simi… Show more
