AB Arterial  flow  is  essential  for  the  allograft  in  orthotopic  liver  transplantation  (OLT).  The  recipient  hepatic  artery  (HA)  or  celiac  trunk  is  usually  suitable  for  standard  revascularization  of  the  liver  graft.  When  the  recipient’s  celiac  trunk  is  not  appropriate  for  arterial  anastomosis,  a  conduit  from  the  aorta  to  the  HA  is  necessary.  The  use  of  arterial  conduits  in  OLT  with  cadaveric  donors  is  often  not  necessary;  about  2%  to  15%  have  been  reported  in  adult  patients.1,2
