Abstract:
Lee and colleagues describe a groundbreaking total robot-assisted explant hepatectomy followed by robotic engraftment for a patient requiring a living donor liver transplant. This report represents a crucial step towards implementing robot-assisted liver transplantation, a cutting-edge surgical technique that could change the surgical trend in recipient surgery for liver transplantation.
