Core Tip	Organ shortage is the main problem of liver transplantation, and the use of marginal grafts could increase the donor pool. Data accumulated to date show that hepatitis B surface antigen-positive grafts could be an additional organ source for liver transplantation. The requirements that have to be fulfilled are the lack of a significant hepatitis B virus-disease of the graft, and the use of a proper prophylactic regimen, which is now largely available.
