The pediatric liver transplant recipients (LT) are not usually subjected to protocol liver biopsies. However, histological abnormalities in long-term follow-up are common, and in some cases, the survival of the graft can be predicted. The objective of this work was to evaluate the histological findings found in pediatric recipients biopsies when they are monitored in the adult LT program. Materials and Methods: a histological review of liver biopsies performed in adulthood was performed on patients (pt) who underwent LT with
