In brief
This study compares outcomes across different graft types used in pediatric liver transplantation: whole and partial grafts from both living and deceased donors, including split-liver and domino techniques. The analysis helps clinicians understand relative performance of each graft option to optimize donor-recipient matching decisions.
Written by the GCMD Library team from the article.
Currently, graft options for pediatric liver transplantation (PLT) include whole (WL) and partial (P) grafts, in the form of either deceased donor transplantation (DD) or living donor liver transplantation (LD). WL transplants from LD are commonly referred to as domino LT. The objective of this manuscript is to compare the outcomes of PLT performed with each of the available graft options.
