Liver Transplantation
Liver Transplantation
A liver transplant is a surgical procedure performed to replace a diseased liver with a healthy liver from another person. The liver may come from a deceased organ donor or from a living donor. Family members or individuals who are unrelated but make a good match may be able to donate a portion of their liver. This type of transplant is called a living transplant. People who donate a portion of their liver can live healthy lives with the remaining liver.
