Topic overview
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.
