Using eight livers, 16 patients received a graft: right liver (eight patients), left lobe (four) or left liver (four). Twelve patients required urgent or very urgent transplantation. Anatomical assessment of the graft demonstrated a portal bifurcation in all cases, a common trunk of the left and middle hepatic veins in five, a right biliary duplication in three and duplication of the left branch of the middle hepatic artery in one. After revascularization of the graft, bleeding was greater in patients with a right graft, particularly if the middle hepatic vein had been ligated. The main postoperative complications were hepatic artery thrombosis (four cases), biliary complications (four), portal vein thrombosis (two), haematoma (two) and abscess (two). No primary non-function of the graft was observed. The postoperative survival rate was 75 per cent. The four patients in whom transplantation was not considered urgent are still alive. The immediate survival rate of the grafts was 69 per cent. These results compare favourably with those in the literature. In spite of the technical, logistical and ethical problems raised by this technique, the results suggest that controlled liver splitting for transplantation in two recipients may in the future significantly improve the feasibility of liver transplantation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.1800800126","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,3,3]],"date-time":"2007-03-03T17:23:53Z","timestamp":1172942633000},"page":"75-80","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":92,"title":["Controlled liver splitting for transplantation in two recipients: Technique, results and perspectives"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"80","author":[{"given":"D","family":"Houssin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinique Chirurgicale, H\u00f4pital Cochin , Paris,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"O","family":"Boillot","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unit\u00e9 de Transplantation, H\u00f4pital Edouard-Herriot , Lyon,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"O","family":"Soubrane","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinique Chirurgicale, H\u00f4pital Cochin , Paris,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C","family":"Couinaud","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinique Chirurgicale, H\u00f4pital Cochin , Paris,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J","family":"Pitre","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinique Chirurgicale, H\u00f4pital Cochin , Paris,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Y","family":"Ozier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinique Chirurgicale, H\u00f4pital Cochin , Paris,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"D","family":"Devictor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"D\u00e9partment de P\u00e9diatrie, H\u00e9patologie, H\u00f4pital Bicetre , le Kremlin-Bicetre,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"O","family":"Bernard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"D\u00e9partment de P\u00e9diatrie, R\u00e9animation, H\u00f4pital Bicetre , le Kremlin-Bicetre,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Y","family":"Chapuis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinique Chirurgicale, H\u00f4pital Cochin , Paris,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1993,1,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2024092811521554200_bib1","first-page":"367","article-title":"Reduced size orthotopic liver grafts in hepatic transplantation in children","volume":"95","author":"Bismuth","year":"1984","journal-title":"Surgery"},{"key":"2024092811521554200_bib2","first-page":"101","article-title":"A new method of segmental orthotopic liver transplantation in children","volume":"104","author":"Strong","year":"1988","journal-title":"Surgery"},{"key":"2024092811521554200_bib3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"30","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1432-2277.1988.tb01776.x","article-title":"A new method of hepatic vein reconstruction in partial liver transplantation","volume":"1","author":"Ringe","year":"1988","journal-title":"Transplant Int"},{"key":"2024092811521554200_bib4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"146","DOI":"10.1097\/00000658-199002000-00006","article-title":"Size reduction of the donor liver is a safe way to alleviate the shortage of size-matched organs in pediatric liver transplantation","volume":"211","author":"Otte","year":"1990","journal-title":"Ann Surg"},{"key":"2024092811521554200_bib5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"410","DOI":"10.1097\/00000658-198810000-00003","article-title":"Liver transplantation including the concept of reduced-size liver transplants in children","volume":"208","author":"Broelsch","year":"1988","journal-title":"Ann Surg"},{"key":"2024092811521554200_bib6","first-page":"532","article-title":"Orthotopic liver transplantation using a reduced-size graft: an ideal compromise in pediatrics?","volume":"111","author":"Houssin","year":"1992","journal-title":"Surgery"},{"key":"2024092811521554200_bib7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"127","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01262776","article-title":"Transplantation einer Spenderleber auf bei zwei Empfanger (splitting-transplantation).
