Abstract
Splenic artery steal syndrome is one of possible arterial complications after orthotopic liver transplantation. Material includes personal experience in diagnostics and treatment of this syndrome. In each case complication was opportunely suspected basing on laboratory and ultrasound data and proved by angiography. Successful treatment was performed using different variants of splenic artery embolization.
