Congestion in the anterior section in a right liver (RL) without a middle hepatic vein (MHV) may lead to graft dysfunction. To solve this problem, an RL draining MHV branches with autologous or cryopreserved vessels can be introduced. However, these vessels are often unavailable, and their preparati
Liver transplantation is now an acceptable treatment for small hepatocellular carcinomas in the setting of cirrhosis. Larger tumors in cirrhotic livers and unresectable tumors in noncirrhotic livers (including fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinomas) may also be indications for transplantation. With
