Özet
Despite several advances in living donor liver transplant (LDLT), many potential living liver donors cannot donate their organs to their relatives because of blood group incompatibility and unsuitable anatomy. Liver paired exchange (LPE) can be used to overcome incompatibilities between living donor–recipient pairs. In this study, we report the early and late results of 3 and 5 LDLTs performed simultaneously to initiate the more complex LPE program. By demonstrating that our center is capable of performing up to 5 LDLTs, we have taken an essential step for establishing a complex LPE program. © 2023 Elsevier Inc.
