Effect of Portal Vein Types on Estimated Remnant Volume in Living Donor: Preoperative CT Assessment.

Due to its propensity to result in insufficient ERLV in the donor, the presence of a type 3 portal vein should be evaluated during the preoperative evaluation. Secondary abstract: This study suggests that donor candidates with type 3 portal vein exhibit a notable rise in the frequency of insufficient remnant liver volume during the preoperative assessment.
