“…The influence of such congestion on graft function is unknown, but may be critical when approaching low threshold graft‐to‐recipient weight ratios . Possible solutions include reconstruction of segment 5 and 8 hepatic vein branches, or inclusion of the MHV with the right liver graft . Inclusion of the MHV with the right liver graft is controversial, however, because of concerns of an increased risk for the donor.…”

“…Inclusion of the MHV with the right liver graft is controversial, however, because of concerns of an increased risk for the donor. A number of retrospective studies have demonstrated that with proper donor selection a right hepatectomy with the MHV is a safe procedure and is not associated with increased morbidity when compared with a right hepatectomy without the MHV . The long‐term effect of a MHV resection on regeneration of the remaining left hemi‐liver, specifically segment 4 (S4) and the caudate lobe is still a matter of controversy.…”

“…Alterações da veia porta (VP) podem ser encontradas em cerca de 20% dessa população e, embora essas não se constituam, normalmente, em contraindicação ao transplante, podem, uma vez reconhecidas, tornar o procedimento cirúrgico mais longo, requerer múltiplas anastomoses aumentando o risco de tromboses 10,15 . Essa preocupação amplia-se, pois apenas cerca de 60% dos doadores possuem uma anatomia dos ductos bilíferos convencional, variações que proporcionam grandes desafios técnicos para a realização do transplante hepático inter-vivos ou mesmo podendo representar contraindicação à doação 12,16,19 .…”

“…Além disso, reduz a taxa de morbidade pósoperatória dos receptores ao mesmo tempo em que aumenta a qualidade do enxerto e a segurança e seleção do doador, quando vários candidatos encontram-se disponíveis 4,24 . Para isso, tem-se valido da angiografia por tomografia computadorizada (angio-TC) e da colangiografia por ressonância nuclear magnética (colangio-RNM), utilizadas como exames pré-operatórios com a intenção de analisar variações anatômicas da tríade portal 4,19,24 .…”
