Role of color Doppler sonography in post-transplant surveillance of vascular complications involving pancreatic allografts

Abstract: KEYWORDSPancreas; Transplantation; Color Doppler ultrasonography; Vascular; Complications.Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the role of color Doppler ultrasonography in the postoperative surveillance of the vascular complications involving pancreas allografts. Methods: A retrospective analysis of a consecutive series of 223 pancreas transplantations was performed. All recipients received antithrombotic prophylaxis, which was tailored to the individual's estimated risk of thrombosis. All patients were monitored wit… Show more

“…PA are difficult to detect before the development of massive hemorrhage due to the absence or mildness of the previous symptoms. For this reason, graft control with doppler ultrasonography in the follow up should be performed[ 35 ]. Once PA is suspected or demonstrated at ultrasonography, the full anatomy of the PA is best displayed with volumetric high-spatial-resolution CT scanning (angio-CT) or magnetic resonance angiography[ 14 ].…”
