Pediatric living donor liver transplantation with homograft replacement of retrohepatic inferior vena cava for advanced hepatoblastoma.

Replacement of the retrohepatic inferior vena cava (IVC) after concurrent resection of IVC and hepatocellular carcinoma-containing liver is settled as a feasible living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) technique to cope with tumors around the IVC. This technique makes LDLT comparable to deceased-donor liver transplantation (DDLT). In the current Korean setting, the common substitute for IVC is a Dacron graft for adult recipients.
