Abstract
Auxiliary liver transplantation has been used mostly for patients with acute liver failure, but between 1980 and 2000, it has gained wider application for patients with both acute and chronic liver diseases. It is particularly applicable in patients in whom there is specific indication for removing the native liver. However, to date, very few patients have survived auxiliary liver transplantation in the long term. In this report, we describe a patient with normal liver function following heterotopic segmental auxiliary liver transplantation whom we followed for nine yr.
