“…(3,4) In 8 patients, we had complete digital imaging records: in 5 patients, the SA was ligated for SA aneurysms, and in 3 patients, it was sectioned for arterial anastomosis. We reviewed the computed tomography (CT) images (before LT and 1-24 months after LT) of these patients using the criteria outlined by Patrono et al (2) Among the patients who developed vascular remodeling (7/8 patients), 5 developed severe collateralization with indications of pre-LT portal hypertension (Table 1). After the initial increase, the diameters of the left gastric artery (LGA) and the gastroepiploic arcade (GEA) of the 5 patients with severe collateralization remained stable, whereas the diameters tended to reduce over time in the nonsevere patients ( Fig.…”
