In living donor liver transplantation (LDLT), bile duct reconstruction is often technically demanding due to the frequently anomalous anatomy of the bile duct, as well as the high incidence of biliary complications. A bile duct branch may also be accidentally left without anastomosis at the time of

Hepaticojejunostomy is a standard biliary reconstruction method for infantile living donor liver transplantation (LDLT), but choledochocholedochostomy for infants is not generally accepted yet. Ten pediatric recipients weighing no more than 10 kg underwent duct-to-duct choledochocholedochostomy (DD)
There is no accurate method to determine the functional significance of bile duct strictures after liver transplantation, and although biliary reconstructive surgery (Rouxen-Y hepaticojejunostomy, HJ) is the second-line treatment in patients with persistent allograft dysfunction following failed end
low in our case. When it is difficult to deliver the parent magnet through the common bile duct, the wall stent may help us perform magnet compression anastomosis safely.
Duct-to-duct anastomosis (DDA) and hepaticojejunostomy (HJ) are options for biliary reconstruction in patients undergoing adult-to-adult right lobe living donor liver transplantation (ARLDLT), after which biliary anastomotic stricture (BAS) is common as a complication. The risk factors for BAS are n
