Abstract:

The authors have analyzed the indications and outcomes after ALPPS procedure considering modern literature data devoted to this surgery in pediatric patients. No data on post-resection liver failure, as well as unclear future liver remnant function make it possible to question the feasibility of such procedures in children.

Keywords:
