Long-term patency and complications of ringed polytetrafluoroethylene grafts used for middle hepatic vein reconstruction in living-donor liver transplantation

Long-term patency and complications of ringed polytetrafluoroethylene grafts used for middle hepatic vein reconstruction in living-donor liver transplantation

Background : Homologous vein allografts are adequate for reconstruction of the middle hepatic vein (MHV) in living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT). However, supply is a matter of concern.
