Prevention of excessive bleeding during liver transplantation (LT) operations presents a major challenge. Compared to deceased donor LT, living donor LT (LDLT) is more vulnerable to bleeding because of additional dissection procedures. We herein introduce our technique for prolonged occlusion of the hepatoduodenal ligament applied to recipient hepa...

Traditional outcome measures (e.g., length of hospital stay, morbidity, and mortality) are used to determine the quality of care, but these may not be most important to patients. It is unclear which outcomes matter to patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC). We aim to identify patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) which p...

Primary hepatic tuberculosis is a rare entity and can closely mimic malignancy with respect to clinical presentation and imaging features. We identified five patients at a high volume tertiary care cancer center, whose clinical features and imaging closely mimicked primary liver malignancy or metastases but final histopathology was suggestive of he...

Salvage liver transplantation (SLT) is a therapeutic strategy for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, it remains controversial with compromised survival outcomes and increased perioperative morbidity compared to primary liver transplant (PLT). In the present work, we describe our institution's experience on SLT by comparing outcomes ...
