Core Tip	As of today, pediatric liver transplantation (pLT) has become a safe and routine procedure for the treatment of childhood acute and chronic liver failure as well as inherited liver diseases. In contrast to adult recipients, pLT differs greatly in indications for LT, allocation practice, surgical technique, immuno-suppression and post-operative life-long aftercare. Long-term survival after pLT implies life-long aftercare in an interdisciplinary team. The present review gives an insight into current indications for pLT, outcome after living-donor and deceased-donor organ transplantation and of ongoing clinical and preclinical developments to improve long-term outcome.
