Liver transplantation is a surgical operation where a patient's diseased liver is replaced, either fully or partially, with a healthy liver from another person.
Liver transplantation is the only treatment for end-stage liver failure. It involves replacing a diseased liver with a healthy one. Worldwide, cirrhosis is the most common reason for liver transplantation, followed by various congenital diseases and certain liver tumors.
The liver transplantation procedure must be performed in a fully equipped hospital by an expert team with extensive experience in this field. Liver transplantation is not solely a surgical procedure. The center's high-quality departments and collaborative work, from the operating room to the laboratory, imaging units to the intensive care unit, inpatient wards to other specialties, are crucial for pre- and post-transplantation care.
