A 10-month-old boy with biliary atresia after Kasai procedure underwent a living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Five days after the LDLT, high fever and increased ascites followed by poor bile drainage was accompanied by elevation of serum liver enzymes. Liver biopsy showed occlusion of the central veins by fibro-edematous endothelium and submassive necrosis of the parenchyma. Veno-occlusive disease (VOD) was suspected, and re-LDLT was urgently performed because of deterioration of hepatic failure. There are few cases of VOD after liver transplantation and this is the first one in an infant after LDLT.
