Abstract

A shortage of organs for liver transplantation has encouraged the development of advanced surgical strategies to increase the donor pool. We present a technical strategy that combines the established techniques of split liver transplantation and left lateral segment donation from living donors for adult recipients. This strategy could provide an additional source of organs for liver transplantation.
