Abstract

Orthotopic liver transplantation became a standard operation. The recipients’ number was
increasing because of the wide indications. In many centers, many of the waiting patients died
due to shortage of liver grafts. This study implanted living dog liver graft, in three different sites.
The results showed that implantation as orthotopic non- auxiliary was better than the other sites.
