Core Tip	The small diameter and complex nature of the duct-to-duct reconstruction of the bile duct in living donor liver transplantation lead to more biliary strictures and difficulties in treatment. A high index of suspicion for the development of biliary stricture should be maintained in order to allow early recognition and early intervention. Nonsurgical methods have become standard therapy. Endoscopic management is generally very effective and has a low incidence of procedure-related complications. Technological advances with newer endoscopic techniques or instruments have continued and may offer the opportunity to widen the indication of endoscopic treatment and to manage more efficiently.
