Monosegment liver transplant is a highly specialised procedure designed for very small pediatric patients who cannot receive even a reduced-size graft. By using a single segment of the donor liver, this procedure offers a vital solution when traditional transplant options are not feasible.
At King’s Liver Transplant Centre of Excellence—affiliated with King’s College Hospital London—we perform monosegment liver transplantation in Dubai with precision and care, ensuring better outcomes for infants and newborns in need of timely and tailored liver transplant solutions.

Why choose monosegment liver transplantation in Dubai?
In pediatric liver transplantation, especially for infants under 6 months or babies with extremely low body weight, even the smallest standard graft may not be a viable option.
Monosegment liver transplant surgery in Dubai allows our expert team to tailor the graft to the child’s anatomy—ensuring better fit, function, and safety.
This technique is made possible through state-of-the-art surgical precision, 3D imaging, and advanced planning that preserves essential structures while reducing the liver graft to a single segment.
