Combined liver-intestinal transplantation: The liver is transplanted en bloc with the small bowel, arterial supply is established through the superior mesenteric artery and celiac trunk graft through a conduit to the aorta, and venous drainage is made through the hepatic veins to the inferior vena cava. The venous drainage of the native viscera is established through a native portocaval shunt. The upper gastrointestinal continuity is maintained through the native stomach and pancreaticoduodenal complex which are retained and anastomosed to the transplant jejunum (transplanted organs are shaded).
