About this treatment
Liver Transplant Surgery is performed for patients with end-stage liver disease, liver failure, cirrhosis, or certain liver cancers. During the procedure, the damaged liver is removed and replaced with a healthy liver from a living or deceased donor. A successful liver transplant can restore liver function, improve quality of life, and increase long-term survival. Lifelong immunosuppressive medications are usually required to prevent organ rejection.
