Transplantation of pancreas is presently the only way of treating diabetes of the 1st type, capable to secure a long-term normoglycemia. In spite of the fact that the surgical technique and tactics of the whole intervention has been standardized over the last years, surgical complications and more specifically vascular complications still pose a certain risk of the graft loss. The thrombosis of vessels of the transplanted pancreas occurred in our group in 4.1 per cent of cases. The other rare complications included a false aneurysm of the supplying artery and stenosis of the out-coming vein from the pancreatic graft. Both these complications were successfully treated by a radio-invasive approach. A refinement of the surgical technique and the introduction of new immunosuppressive drugs manifests favorably in decreasing occurrence of vascular complications after the transplantation of pancreas.
