Living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) has been established as the therapeutic strategy for the rescue of terminal liver disease in Japan. We performed the first case of LDLT in Chiba prefecture for a hepatic failure case induced by Wilson's disease. The recipient was 13-yr-old male, who had developed the liver cirrhosis owing to Wilson's disease. The recipient was AB as the blood type, 176.0 cm in height and 67.0 kg in weight. The donor was 22-yr-old female who was a sister of a different father. The donor was A as the blood type (compatible), 148.0cm in height and 50.0kg in weight. The right hepatic lobe was transplanted to the recipient. The postsurgical course was quite excellent to gain gradually normal hepatic function. The copper metabolism also recovered well to increase the serum ceruloplasmin levels and decrease the urinary copper excretion. The donor discharged on 16th postoperative day without any problems. The recipient discharged on 72nd postoperative day without any rejection or troubles.
