Hepatic arterial thrombosis is by far, the most common serious
vascular complication after hepatic transplantation. In this gross photograph,
a dissecting aneurysm separates the media and intima from the adventitia(arrow)
of the main hepatic artery. This results in lumenal compromise and deficient
blood flow to the liver.
