Abstract

Transhepatic cholangiography is commonly performed during postoperative evaluation of liver transplant patients. The authors describe a potential pitfall in the interpretation of these studies and illustrate that dilated interrupted lymphatics of the donor liver can mimic a periductal leak of contrast material.
