Abstract：Laparoscopic hepatectomy is now a widely accepted surgical technique in hepatobiliary surgery and is comparably safe and efficient to open hepatectomy [ 1 , 2 ]. In liver transplantation, studies have underscored the safety of laparoscopic or robot-assisted procedures in donor hepatectomy [ 3-5 ]. Donors undergoing laparoscopic or robot-assisted hepatectomy experience reduced postoperative complications and shorter recovery periods [ 6-8 ]. Recently, surgeons in Seoul National University Hospital reported several consecutive living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) with pure laparoscope, hybrid laparoscopic with robotic-assistance, and total robot-assistance [ 9-11 ]. Following closely, surgeons in King Faisal Specialist Hospital at Saudi Arabia reported 3 fully robotic donor hepatectomy and robotic recipient liver graft implantation [ 12 ]. However, to the best of our knowledge, the laparoscopic implantation for a full-size liver graft has not been reported.
