In the last few years an increase in the number of candidates for liver transplantation has been observed. However, the donor pool has not increased proportionally so that the lack of available donor organs remain a major concern. Living-related liver transplantation is actually one of the strategies to maximize donor organ use not only for paediatric but also for the adult patient population. The authors report their experience with the first adult-to-adult living-related liver transplantation using the right lobe. Despite a donor portal anomaly, the donor operation and the transplantation were uneventful. After six months' follow-up, donor and recipient are in excellent clinical state.
