Résumé

In liver transplantation (LT), matching is a rapid, thoughtful process during which anthropometric, biologic and anatomical data of two individuals are combined to decide organ acceptance. Anthropometrics (weight and height) are intuitively used at the first look to decide if the liver of a donor can fit into the potential recipient.

Mots clés

Donor-recipient matching, anthropometrics, large-for-size, mismatch, right-anteroposterior diameter
