Emerging Trends in Interventional Radiology for Post-Transplant Hepatic Complications

John Thomas

Liver transplantation stands as a critical intervention for individuals with end-stage liver disease, yet post-transplant hepatic complications persist as a significant clinical challenge. This abstract examines the burgeoning trends in interventional radiology (IR) aimed at addressing these complications. IR, leveraging advanced imaging and minimally invasive procedures, plays a pivotal role in the management of post-transplant hepatic complications. This review highlights the latest trends in the field, including innovative embolization techniques, advancements in stenting solutions, refined image-guided drainage procedures, personalized treatment planning through 3D printing, thermal ablation progressions, integration of artificial intelligence, and the increasing use of telemedicine for consultations. These trends hold promise in enhancing patient outcomes, minimizing complications, and broadening access to specialized care for liver transplant recipients. Effective collaboration among interventional radiologists, transplant surgeons, and healthcare professionals remains imperative in harnessing these advancements for optimal patient care.
