Résumé
In pediatric liver transplantation, the optimal size of the transplanted liver ranges between 0.8% and 4.0% of the recipient's weight. Sometimes, the graft weight exceeds this upper limit, characterizing the large-for-size condition potentially associated with reduced blood flow and worsening of ischemia-reperfusion injury. Therefore, it would be beneficial to increase the portal flow through arterialization of the portal vein.
