Résumé
The split liver technique enables transplanting 2 recipients with one single graft (typically an adult-child pair). It facilitates small recipients' access to liver transplantation and reduces mortality on the waiting list. However, splitting is technically demanding and may increase peri- and postoperative complications. To be able to obtain comparable outcomes to a full graft liver transplantation, careful donor-recipients selection, experienced surgeons, and logistic planning are paramount. The video shows an in situ split liver procedure from a 32-year-old brain stem death donor to generate a left lateral sector for a child and a right extended graft for an adult recipient.
