Protein-losing Enteropathy Due to Inferior Vena Cava Stenosis in a Liver Transplant Recipient
2021
Inferior vena cava (IVC) stenosis is an uncommon complication of liver transplantation (LT) and is seen in <3% of all LTs. We describe a novel presentation of IVC stenosis in a liver transplant recipient resulting in protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) and treated successfully with stent placement across the stenosis with subsequent resolution of symptoms.
