    Partial liver transplantation offers a viable alternative to whole-organ transplants, preserving donor life and graft quality. This technique is crucial for addressing donor shortages in liver transplantation.

    Area of Science:

    • Surgical procedures
    • Organ transplantation
    • Hepatology

    Context:

    • Liver transplantation in Japan faces controversy regarding brain-dead donors.
    • Partial liver transplantation presents an alternative to overcome donor limitations.
    • Graft availability and freshness are key concerns in organ transplantation.

    Purpose:

    • To describe the procedures of orthotopic partial liver transplantation.
    • To highlight the benefits of partial liver transplantation for donors and recipients.
    • To explore applications in both canine and human subjects.

    Summary:

    • Partial liver transplantation involves using a portion of a donor liver, often from a living donor.
    • Procedures include left lobectomy for adults and utilizing a parent's left lobe for children with biliary atresia.

  • The technique aims to improve donor availability and graft quality while preserving donor life.
  • Impact:

    • Partial liver transplantation can increase the pool of available organs for patients needing a liver transplant.
    • This approach may reduce criticism associated with deceased donor liver transplantation.
    • Successful canine and human procedures demonstrate the feasibility and potential of this surgical innovation.
