[The place of angiography and radiologic intervention before and after liver transplantation].

The study demonstrates the value of angiography and radiological interventions before and after liver transplantation. From September 1988 till February 1991 84% out of 124 hepatic transplant recipients underwent pretransplant angiography evaluation for the exact demonstration of arterial and portal venous blood supply of the liver. Posttransplant angiography was performed in cases with suspected vascular complications, chronic rejection, and spleno-hepatic steal syndrome. Radiological interventions were performed for bacteriological examination and percutaneous drainage of encapsulated fluid collections.
