UM Transplant Research Education and Engagement Michael Englesbe Meredith Barrett David P. Foley Kelly Collins Great video! Having a consistent approach, good help, and sufficient exposure are key for every anastomosis. A consistent technique for standard cases, like the one shown here, allows trainees to gain confidence. #MedEd #MedTwitter

We are trained to evert or “lip” at least the posterior wall to ensure approximation of intima to intima and take out any redundancy. I was a secret hoarder of PV length but as my training progresses - I realize the PV can never be too short! @jgaronzikwang

Shah Ryan William Day, MD Hassan Aziz, MD, FACS I do it this way but have largely stopped doing the air knot - rather, I release the portal clamp and tie it down with the PV fully expanded. No way for it to be too loose or too tight then, having been traumatized by Magee lol
