- **Study Type:** OBSERVATIONAL
- **Target Enrollment:** 50
- **Lead Sponsor:** Assiut University
- **Conditions:** Liver Transplant; Complications
- **Start Date:** 2024-01-01

- **CT.gov Last Update:** 2025-07-24

## Brief Summary

Liver transplantation (LT) is a live-saving therapy for patients with complicated chronic liver diseases and acute liver failure .Even though many complications can occur after LT, biliary complications (BC) are both common and potentially severe .

a prospective study and retrospective part from hospital records.

Aim of the study:

1. Detect frequency, risk factors for development of biliary complications post living donor liver transplantation, types (stricture anastomotic or not, leak, biloma, stone, cholangitis etc.…).
2. Evaluate outcomes of different biliary complications

## Eligibility

- **Minimum age:** 18 Years
- **Maximum age:** 65 Years
- **Sex:** ALL
- **Healthy Volunteers:** No

```
Inclusion Criteria:

* Adults more than 18 y with living donor liver transplantation in Al-Rajhy liver hospital , Assiut university,Egypt

Exclusion Criteria:

* pediatric liver transplantation
* cadaveric liver transplantation
```

## Primary Outcomes

- **Incidence of biliary complications** _(time frame: 1 year after liver transplantation)_ — Biliary complications include biliary leak or stricture (anastomotic or non anastomotic), the investigator will record nature of complication , its time of presentation and number of hospital re-admissions due to biliary complications.
- **Type of intervention done to each complication** _(time frame: 1 year after liver transplantation)_ — Intervention is either non surgical (ERCP or PTD) or surgical revision with detailed description of each intervention and if the intervention is successful or not (biliary stricture resolved by MRCP, improvement of liver functions and symptoms)
