الوصف: The results of end-to-end cavocavostomy during adult liver transplantation were analyzed with special regard to caval complications. In a series of 1000 liver transplants, we observed 17 patients who suffered from postoperative caval obstruction (6 patients) or caval stenosis (11 patients), for an incidence of 1.7%. Surgical therapy was performed in 10 patients (58.8%), and 5 patients required retransplantation (29.4%). Four patients died during the later postoperative course. Two fatalities were related to caval complications, resulting in a mortality rate of 11.8%. Our results indicate that end-to-end cavocavostomy is a safe technique for cavocaval anastomosis. For only a few exceptions, such as pediatric transplantation, reduced size livers, or size mismatch between donor and recipient, should alternative techniques such as end-to-side or side-to-side cavocavostomy be performed.
