Liver Transplantation

Liver transplantation is a surgical procedure of removing a liver which does not function properly (liver failure) and replacing it with a healthy liver. This failure can be of an acute (sudden) or chronic (gradual) cause. Liver transplantation is advised when liver functions have deteriorated to a point where they cannot be restored or managed through medical treatments or surgical procedures. The transplant surgery would take around 8-12 hours in general.

Types of liver transplants

Deceased Donor Liver Transplant: The graft liver is obtained from a deceased donor and transplanted into the person with liver failure. The person needs to register in the organ waiting registry and should wait till turn comes up.

Living Donor Liver Transplant: The part of a healthy living person’s liver (usually a close family member) is been harvested and transplanted into the individual with liver failure. The donor's and recipient's liver will regenerate to near-normal size within a few months after the surgery. Certain legal compliances are to be met to proceed with living donor liver transplant.

The prognosis after a liver transplant is generally good, with a high success rate. Liver recipients can lead normal, healthy, and happy lives after the procedure. The long-term outcome depends on various factors such as adherence to medical advice, lifestyle changes, timely medical follow-up, and the individual's overall health.
