| Popis: | Backgrounds/aims Multiple ducts in right lobe living-donor liver transplant (LDLT) pose a technical challenge in biliary reconstruction. In the absence of separate recipient hepatic ducts for duct-to-duct anastomoses and certain demerits of hepaticojejunostomy, duct to duct anastomoses with the recipient cystic duct might be a possible solution. Methods A total of 329 recipients of LDLT who underwent two or more separate biliary anastomoses at our centre between January 2014 and November 2019 were studied retrospectively. Records of demographic data, donor and graft characteristics, operative details, postoperative biochemical parameters, and biliary complications were analysed. Results Of 329 recipients, 236 patients (71.7%) underwent purely duct-to-duct (DD group) anastomoses, 38 patients (11.5%) underwent at least one anastomosis with the cystic duct (CD group), and 55 patients (16.7%) underwent at least one hepaticojejunostomy (HJ group). At one year, biliary complication rates of these three groups were 20.3%, 26.3%, and 20.0%, respectively (p = 0.68). Postoperative intensive care unit and overall hospital stay were similar among the three groups. Grades IIIa, IIIb, IV, and V Clavien-Dindo complications were identical. One-year patient survival and graft survival were also similar among the three groups. Conclusions Biliary outcomes using the cystic duct may have acceptable outcomes. Similar postoperative results as other means of biliary reconstruction could be anticipated with the cystic duct anastomoses in case of multiple ducts in the graft. |
