Résumé
During piggyback liver transplantation (LT), a temporary end-to-side portocaval anastomosis (PCA) facilitates native total hepatectomy while maintaining hemodynamic stability. Some argue that PCA, performed on the main portal trunk (PT), might shorten the main portal vein and could cause technical difficulties during LT. We describe a temporary PCA performed on the right portal vein (R-PCA).
