Abstract

In July 1989, an Australian surgical team successfully performed an orthotopic reduced-size liver transplantation in a 17-month-old infant, using a portion of his mother's liver. The authors describe, with illustrations, the operative procedure in the donor, the preparation of the graft, and the operative procedure in the recipient. They discuss the implications of this case and others for liver transplantation in children, for whom treatment of end-stage liver disease is hampered by a shortage of cadaveric organs, and address the ethical issues involved in living related donor transplantation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
