| Summary: | Transplantation of liver left lateral section (LLS) firmly established itself as a radical and effective method of treatment of advanced diffuse and unresectable focal liver diseases in pediatric patients. At the same time surgical community faced the challenge of matching the size of the adult donor’s graft to the volume of the child’s abdomen. Review of the literature presents historical aspects of transplantology, some approaches to measurement of the required liver parenchyma functional mass and methods to prevent complications associated with the usage of large LLS grafts in infants. In addition, the latest data on estimation of intra-abdominal pressure and development of intra-abdominal hypertension syndrome are also presented. |
