Abstract

Introduction: The evidence for defining a safe remnant/total volume ratio(RTVR) for in living donor ight hepatectomy (LDRH) for living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is still not clear. The current practice of arbitrarily requiring an RTVR of at least 30% is based on the experience of early studies to keep donor safety. Herein, we describe our center’s experience for LDRH with RTVR < 30% and evaluate the outcomes of living donors with RTVR < 30%.
