Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is frequently observed in aging end-stage liver disease (ESLD) patients who require orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). This situation is challenging for both the pa- tients and the medical staff.Methods: We retrospectively studied the case records of 26 ESLD patients with CAD who underwent OLT with total clamping of the inferior vena cava between 2014 and 2018. We analyzed the details of the pre-operative evaluation, intraoperative anesthetic management and post-operative prognosis of these patients. Results: All patients tolerated the anhepatic stage well. Post-reperfusion syndrome (PRS) was observed in 13 patients (50％) and 2 of them were severe but corrected well. ST-segment depression was frequently observed during the anhepatic stage and reperfusion stage. No mortality due to cardiac-related events occurred among the patients during hospitalization. OLT with the modified piggyback technique could successfully be performed in ESLD patients with mild and moderate CAD. Conclusions: A thorough evaluation and optimization of recipients, strict monitoring and optimized man- agement of circulation, knowledge of the complicated changes during OLT procedures, and strategies to ameliorate post-reperfusion syndrome favorite the outcomes.
