Because hepatic vasculatures exhibit variations, a preoperative evaluation of the vascular anatomy and an estimation of the volume of the liver graft are essential for successful adult living donor liver transplantation. Using 3-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT), we analyzed the volumetric a
## Abstract ## Background Postoperative venous congestion can lead to graft and remnant liver failure in living donor liver transplantation. This study was designed to delineate βterritorial belongingβ of the middle hepatic vein (MHV) and to identify hepatic venous anatomy at high risk of outflow
