Choosing a Hospital for Liver Transplant Surgery Can Be Nerve Wracking

Jaypee Hospital19 Sep, 2022Health

A liver transplant, otherwise known as hepatic transplant, is a surgical procedure performed in case of end-stage liver disease or irreversible liver failure where the damaged or diseased liver has to be replaced with a healthy one. This new organ can be provided by living donors (usually the patient?s parents) or by deceased donors depending on the patient?s medical condition and blood type. Considering the number of living donors required in India, it is highly recommended that you choose your transplant surgeon wisely to avoid complications and improve your chances of survival after surgery.
