We evaluated the anatomic variations of the middle right hepatic vein (MRHV) and inferior right hepatic vein (IRHV) and their clinical application to the possibility of right subtotal hepatectomy. In 400 of normal livers studied with ultrasound, the IRHV was found to drain segment 6 of the liver and

The middle hepatic vein may be included in right liver living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) to optimize hepatic venous outflow. We studied the graft's ability to relieve portal hypertension and accommodate portal hyperperfusion with portal manometry and ultrasonic flowmetry. Surgical outcomes w
In comparison with the left and right hepatic arteries, there is a relative lack of information on the middle hepatic artery (MHA). In this study, data obtained by multidetector computed tomography from 145 patients were studied to evaluate anatomical variations of the MHA, a hilar artery that prima
Full-right/full-left splitting of the liver offers a chance to overcome the severe shortage of donor organs. During this procedure, the splitting surgeons are always faced with the question of how to share the middle hepatic vein (MHV), since this vein drains parts of both halves of the liver. Conse
Because revascularization of the inferior right hepatic vein (IRHV) is a major component of right liver graft (RLG) reconstruction, we assessed the surgical techniques and clinical outcomes of IRHV reconstruction so that we could formulate practical guidelines for standardized procedures. From July
Preservation of the middle hepatic vein (MHV) for a right split liver transplantation (SLT) in an adult recipient is still controversial. The aim of this study was to evaluate the graft and patient outcomes after liver transplantation (LT) using a right split graft, according to the type of venous d
