Evaluate the outcome of pediatric living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) regarding portal vein reconstruction, ABO-compatibility and impact of maternal donation on graft acceptance.

Detailed Description

Data from 250 pediatric LDLT recipients (and their donors), transplanted at Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc between July 1993 and June 2012, were collected retrospectively using electronic data files.
