Abstract

Liver transplantation is the major therapeutic option for end-stage liver disease as recent improvement in surgical technique,
immune-suppressant contribute to better post-transplant outcome. However, significant graft failure as a result of vascular
complications is still noted, especially in partial liver transplant with living donor graft and complications is higher risk in children
compared with adults. The incidence of hepatic vein stenosis in pediatric liver transplant is 6% with living donor graft. A first case
of pediatric liver transplant with living donor graft which performed in Viet Duc hospital have complication of hepatic vein stenosis
and success with balloon angioplasty and stent placement.
