Organ donor availability is the major limiting factor in pediatric liver transplantation, and many children succumb from their liver disease before a suitable donor can be found. In an attempt to overcome this shortage, reduced-size liver transplantation, split liver transplantation, and living-donor liver transplantation have been introduced. The eventual role of these techniques will be determined by accumulated experience over the next several years.
器官供体的可获得性是小儿肝移植的主要限制因素，许多儿童在找到合适的供体之前就死于肝脏疾病。为了克服这种短缺，人们引入了减体积肝移植、劈离式肝移植和活体供肝移植。这些技术的最终作用将由未来几年积累的经验来决定。
