AB KEY  POINTSThe  main  reasons  for  reoperation  after  liver  transplantation  are  postoperative  bleeding,  vascular  and  biliary  complications,  and  intraabdominal  sepsis.Surgical  complications  after  renal  transplantation  including  graft  thrombosis,  renal  artery  stenosis,  urinary  leak,  or  urinary  obstruction  have  an  incidence  of  5%  to  10%  and  remain  important  causes  of  graft  loss.After  pancreatic  transplant,  a  sudden  increase  in  amylase  and  lipase  with  a  change  in  exogenous  insulin  requirements  is  predictor  of  graft  ischemia  or  rejection.It  is  important  for  an  intensivist  to  be  familiar  with  early  detection  and  treatment  of  infection  and  immunosuppressive  medications  and  their  side  effects  in  the  posttransplant  patient.
