Recurrent giant biloma following deceased donor split liver transplantation.
Biliary complications remain a substantial cause of morbidity following liver transplantation (LT), with a reported incidence of 10-15% after full-size LT, and even higher after living donor, split, and reduced size LT. We report herein the case of a patient with a recurrent giant biloma following deceased donor split LT, which despite its volume was treated conservatively.
