Abstract

BACKGROUND:
The use of pediatric donor liver for pediatric liver transplantation (LT) remains controversial and few studies have focused on pediatric deceased donors. To address this issue, we decided to perform a retrospective research, trying to compare the clinical effects between deceased donor LTs (DDLTs) and living donor LTs (LDLTs).
