Extravascular complications following abdominal organ transplantation

Indocyanine green fluorescence angiography during liver and pancreas transplantation: a tool to integrate perfusion statement’s evaluation

“…In the same manner, pancreas transplantation procedure could be affected by severe complications causing graft loss and severely increased mortality as the digestive leak, in case of enteric diversion (21). The main cause of this severe complication is a defective duodenal graft vascularization (21,22). In fact, the duodenal stump vascularization is far from being optimal due to gastroduodenal artery ligation during the organ procurement (22).…”

Absence of Post-Transplantation Encapsulating Peritoneal Sclerosis after Relatively Short Exposure to Peritoneal Dialysis: Prospective Analysis Using Repeated Abdominal Ct Scanning

“…Because of limited time between admission and the start of the surgical procedure in the case of transplantation with a deceased donor kidney, we performed all baseline CT scans 3 weeks post-transplantation. Development of post-transplantation EPS is unlikely in this short period and we assumed this period to be long enough for any direct postoperative intra-abdominal changes to regress (20).…”

Imaging in pancreas transplantation complications: Temporal classification

“…11 We can visualize the leakage directly on a CT as an extravasation of orally administered contrast agent and the consequences of the leakage, such as peritonitis (Fig 13). 11 We can visualize the leakage directly on a CT as an extravasation of orally administered contrast agent and the consequences of the leakage, such as peritonitis (Fig 13).…”

“…Most bowel perforations and leaks typically occur at the enteric anastomosis and are secondary to dehiscence of the sutures. 11 We can visualize the leakage directly on a CT as an extravasation of orally administered contrast agent and the consequences of the leakage, such as peritonitis (Fig 13).…”
