Abstract
Polycystic liver disease is a hereditary disease, which is characterized by the presence of multiple cysts within the liver. In this case, we report a patient with multiple cysts in the kidneys and liver, who underwent kidney transplantation in 2019 and then liver transplantation 4 years later. The complexities of performing liver transplantation in a patient with a prior kidney transplant were significant, particularly due to the enlarged liver obscuring critical vascular structures and necessitating careful intraoperative strategies, such as the side-to-side anastomosis or piggyback techniques to ensure venous return and protect the renal graft. One year post-transplant, the patient exhibited stable liver and kidney functions, demonstrating the feasibility of liver transplantation after kidney transplantation from different donor grafts. The surgical technique and perioperative management require careful consideration.
