Evaluation of vascular anatomy and detection of hepatic vascular variations prior to surgery, especially transplantation surgery, can help reduce complications in both the donor and the recipient. Intraoperative ultrasonography (IOUS) is known to be beneficial during planning of the transplantation surgery, and can help direct the surgery itself. To our knowledge, there are no existing studies that evaluate the number and diameter of segment 5 and 8 branches that need to be anastomosed with IOUS. In this study, considering surgical anatomical evaluation as the gold standard, IOUS findings were compared to computed tomography angiography (CTA) findings. 40 patients were included in the study. The average diameters of segment 8 branches that were anastomosed and not anastomosed were significantly different when measured by IOUS (p = 0.016); however, no such statistically significant difference was found in measurements made with CTA (p = 0.89). CTA is superior to IOUS in detecting segment 5 and 8 veins draining into the middle hepatic vein. However, IOUS is more accurate in predicting which vessels are going to be anastomosed. For a complete and accurate assessment, both imaging modalities should be used to complement each other, and their respective advantages and disadvantages should be known.
