The authors report their experience with angiographic techniques in the diagnosis of vascular complications after liver transplantation. From 1986 to 1990, 78 patients were transplanted in our Hospital; of them, 8 underwent angiographic investigations for vascular complications. Angiography is very important when vascular complications are suspected, in the patients with a rise in cytolytic enzymes and in bilirubine levels, with hyperpyrexia, and with bioptic confirmation of no rejection. Duplex US is useful in the evaluation of portal canalization; if there are any doubts, angiography is performed also in the preoperative phase
