TEACHING POINTS

Identifying the location and type of vascular and enteric anastomoses are critical to accurate imaging follow up. Pulse wave doppler findings of reversed diastolic arterial flow to the transplant pancreas suggests venous thrombosis Multiphase CT protocol with enteric contrast is important in detecting vascular and enteric complications.
