Core Tip	Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for stage hepatectomy (ALPPS) is a novel surgical approach that was first reported in 2012. This surgical approach has revolutionized the management of patients with resectable liver tumors and inadequate future liver remnant volume. Nonetheless, the global preliminary experience is so far limited to the use in adult patients with small future liver remnant. With the favorable outcome in adult patients reported so far, we have adopted this technique to a young patient with a right liver hepatoblastoma and small left lateral section. To our knowledge, this is the first report that showed the feasibility of ALPPS in a pediatric patient.
