| Core Tip |
One third of liver transplant recipients are affected by biliary tract complications which are the major source of morbidity in these patients. Biliary-biliary (as opposed to bilio-enteric) anastomoses are first treated by endoscopy, with resolution of > 85% and > 75% of cases in deceased and living-donor transplant recipients, respectively. New stenting protocols and new designs of fully covered self-expandable metal stents are at the frontline of efforts aiming to reduce patient burden during treatment. Here, we discuss the latest developments in the endoscopic approaches to these complications.
