Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Participants in the trial will be adult patients on the liver transplant waiting list who are planned to receive a whole liver allograft with a duct to duct biliary anastomosis from brain dead donors.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients will be excluded from the project if they are planned to receive any graft other than a whole liver from a brain dead donor. Given the higher biliary complication rate in split liver and DCD grafts these have been excluded. Patients who have a biliary reconstruction involving a hepaticoenterostomy will also be excluded. On occasion it is necessary to defer biliary reconstruction because of bleeding or because of recipient haemodynamic instability. This event occurs uncommonly, but has the potential to skew results because biliary complications are likely to be higher, and allocation may be asymmetrical across arms.
