Over the years, significant developments have been made in the field of pediatric liver transplantation. Better patient and graft survival, new immunosuppressive agents and strategies and the availability of long‐term outcomes have resulted in a wealth of literature. Between January 2003 and August 2005, more than 1200 articles related to pediatric liver transplantation have been published in various journals. We have attempted to summarize the clinical studies of direct relevance in this field. This review of 25 articles is by no means exhaustive and is meant as a guide for quick reference and further reading.
