Résumé
The results of liver transplantation in children have dramatically improved from the wide use of cyclosporine A and because of technical advances such as the use of reduced-size adult liver transplants. It is now accurate to consider that 70 to 80% of transplanted children will be alive with a normal life 5 years post-transplant. Within a few years, liver transplantation has thus become the regular treatment of many liver diseases in childhood.
