Since indications for liver transplantation (LTx) have increased and the shortage of brain dead transplant organs continues, an increase in deaths related to extended waiting periods can be documented. Living-related LTx (LRLTx) is a good alternative that can help compensate the shortness of organs for transplantation and can reduce waiting periods and deaths related to a long waiting list. We started a LRLTx programme at the transplantation centre, Department of Surgery at the University of Heidelberg to increase our transplantation activities. In this article we present our primary experiences and protocol.
