Obstructive jaundice as a long-term complication in a patient with liver transplantation.
Obstructive jaundice related to stricture and stone in cystic duct was found in a patient 6 years after liver transplantation and cholecystojejunostomy. Complications with biliary drainage following liver transplantation are discussed. In the presence of dilated ducts seen by ultrasound, percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography performed immediately can lead to surgical correction, thus preventing failure of the liver transplant.
