Multivisceral transplant is tricky. Donor OR doesn’t need porta dissection but needs accurate dissection from retroperitoneum. Knowledge from HPB, Colorectal, trauma surgery is needed. The Treiz / Toldt fusion fascia is one of the most important points to handle operation.

For Japanese resident, the postoperative illustration is mandatory, and the certificate of HPB operation also needs precise illustration. Below is my resident in Toronto. The output is not a talent, and anyone can draw with some practice. Visualization is clear method to share!

The bile duct is supplied solely by the hepatic arterial system, and excessive dissection during arterial anastomosis may compromise perfusion, leading to bile ischemia and subsequent stricture formation.
