AB Heart,  renal,  hepatic,  and  pancreatic  transplantations  are  being  performed  with  increasing  frequency,  leading  to  a  greater  demand  for  knowledgeable  evaluation  of  vascular  complications  involving  these  grafts.  Arterial  anomalies  associated  with  implantation  of  these  grafts  and  arterial  complications  following  transplantation,  both  present  unique  anatomic  and  physiologic  problems.  Arterial  and  venous  stenoses  and  occlusions,  pseudoaneurysms,  and  arteriovenous  fistulas  may  occur  in  this  patient  population.  Here,  we  summarize  the  most  common  arterial  complications  that  take  place  in  transplant  recipients  with  a  discussion  of  how  to  approach  these  complications.
