## Abstract Present techniques for renal transplantation in the rat include a period of 20β25 minutes warm ischemia. Our method combines a recently described sleeve anastomotic technique for the renal artery, conventional endβtoβend anastomosis of the renal vein, and implantation of the ureter into

β¦ Synopsis
A new technique for combined hepatopancreaticoduodenal transplantation in the rat is described. The composite cluster graft consists of an orthotopic arterialized liver graft in anatomical continuity with the pancreaticoduodenal part that is placed heterotopically into the recipient. A separate arterial anastomosis of the liver and a bile duct anastomosis are not necessary, since these structures are left intact in the hepatoduodenal ligament. Bile and exocrine pancreas secretions drain over the duodenal conduit of the graft into the recipient jejunum via an end-to-side anastomosis. This model adds a new transplantation technique to existing microsurgical models.

In previous studies, the suture technique and the cuff method were applied to anastomoses of the suprahepatic vena cava (SHVC) in rat orthotopic liver transplantation. However, the anastomosis of SHVC is difficult during transplantation because of the short length of the SHVC. Here, we developed a n
