Abstract | This case report describes the first ex situ full-right/full-left splitting of a liver from a pediatric deceased donor in the Middle East with an excellent outcome for both recipients. The left lateral split-liver transplant requires division of the deceased donor liver into a left lateral lobe for a pediatric recipient and an extended right lobe for an adult recipient, thus producing only 1 graft for a pediatric recipient. Full-right/full-left liver transplant, which splits the liver along the line of Cantlie, is a much more complex and challenging surgery, even though the technique is fully developed, and is theoretically able to produce 2 sizeable grafts for 2 pediatric recipients. However, the full-right/full-left liver transplant remains limited because of the small vascular structures and therefore was not recommended and was not previously described in the literature. |
