AbstractThe necessity of providing venous drainage for the right anterior sector of a right-lobe graft in adult-to-adult right-lobe live-donor liver transplantation has been controversial. Inclusion of the middle hepatic vein in the right-lobe graft to ensure better early graft function is also under debate. This report summarizes the views of five Asian centers on the necessity of providing venous drainage to the right anterior sector in a right-lobe graft as presented at the Asian Living Donor Transplantation Symposium 2002. All five centers recognize the importance of adequate drainage of the right anterior sector, but they adopt different approaches in including the middle hepatic vein in the graft. Tokyo University uses an occlusion test of the right hepatic artery and middle hepatic vein to define whether the right anterior sector is dusky or regurgitation of blood flow is present in the right anterior portal vein before the decision is made for middle hepatic vein reconstruction. The Asan Medical Center uses hydrostatically dilated saphenous venous graft to anastomose prominent segment V and VIII hepatic vein branches to the inferior vena cava. The University of Hong Kong Medical Centre includes the middle hepatic vein in every graft and anastomoses it to the recipient's middle or left hepatic vein. Kyoto University uses venous jump graft for anastomosing prominent middle hepatic vein branches to the inferior vena cava for recipients receiving a small-for-size graft or graft with dominant middle hepatic vein drainage. The Chang Gung Memorial Hospital adopts a flexible approach in inclusion of the middle hepatic vein in the graft depending on the donor size and the hepatic venous configuration of the right-lobe graft. In summary, the criteria for inclusion and reconstruction of the middle hepatic vein vary. Further analysis is needed to confirm the importance of adequate drainage of the right anterior sector in right-lobe live-donor liver transplantation.
