SUMMARY

Two cases of anisocoria that occurred just after the induction of general anesthesia for living donor liver transplantation are reported. Space-occupying lesions were not observed in brain computed tomography. Mydriasis was temporary in both cases, suggesting that the anisocoria was most likely related to Adie syndrome.
