Summary:

The literature review presents the data on a current state of the problem of anastomotic strictures of the bile ducts in patients after living donor liver transplantation, called the «Achilles» heel» of transplantology. The data on the frequency and timing of the development of strictures, their causes and risk factors are given. The role of imaging methods in the diagnosis of this group of complications is shown. Methods for treating biliary post-transplantation strictures are described: antegrade, retrograde, and open. The themes of the prospects of percutaneous and endoscopic techniques and the choice of stricture treatment methods are also touched upon.
