Retrospective review was carried out of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">US<\/jats:styled-content> results in 39 consecutive patients, from 2011 to 2013, with biliary complications after LT, documented by <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PTC<\/jats:styled-content>. According to <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">US<\/jats:styled-content> biliary dilation, patients were classified as: mild, moderate, and severe, and according to laboratory findings as: normal or abnormal serum bilirubin and level of serum <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">GGT<\/jats:styled-content>. Data were correlated with <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PTC<\/jats:styled-content> findings, divided in three groups: mild, moderate, and severe\/occlusive <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">BDS<\/jats:styled-content>. There was no statistically significant correlation between the <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">US<\/jats:styled-content> findings and the laboratory findings and between <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">US<\/jats:styled-content> findings with <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PTC<\/jats:styled-content>. There was a statistically significant correlation between <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">GGT<\/jats:styled-content> and cholangiography. In our series, abnormal <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">US<\/jats:styled-content> could not predict the severity of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">BDS<\/jats:styled-content> on <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PTC<\/jats:styled-content>. Bilirubin results were not able to predict the <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">US<\/jats:styled-content> findings either. <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">GGT<\/jats:styled-content> results demonstrated a statistically significant correlation with the severity of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">BDS<\/jats:styled-content> found on <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">PTC<\/jats:styled-content>.
