The systematic application of living-related and cadaveric, in situ split-liver transplantation has helped to alleviate the critical shortage of suitable-sized, pediatric donors. Undoubtedly, both techniques are beneficial and advantageous; however, the superiority of either graft source has not been demonstrated directly. Because of the potential living-donor risks, we reserve the living donor as the last graft option for pediatric recipients awaiting liver transplantation. Inasmuch as no direct comparison between these two graft types has been performed, we sought to perform a comparative analysis of the functional outcomes of left lateral segmental grafts procured from these donor sources to determine whether differences do exist.
