This, in part, is because of the fear of doing something wrong, unfamiliarity, and lack of knowledge about post-transplant management of these patients. With better knowledge about technical aspects of liver transplantation, it would be easier for hepatologists and gastroenterologists to acknowledge potential complications in earlier stages and react properly f...
