AbstractThere is a significant shortage of deceased liver grafts for paediatric patients worldwide. In Hong Kong, this problem is even more severe. In order to expand the donor pool, various methods have been used. Split-graft liver transplant is one of the potential ways to effectively increase the number of deceased donor grafts. Here, we present a review of our experience of using split-grafts for children in Hong Kong.
