Intra-Arterial Thrombolysis for Hepatic Artery Thrombosis following Liver Transplantation

Posttransplantation hepatic artery thrombolysis yields suboptimal results with a high complication rate, especially in early HAT. Even with successful restoration of flow, clinical outcomes are poor. Although thrombolysis may still be considered in view of the limited treatment options for HAT, awareness of potential complications and suboptimal success rate is essential.
