  1. Liver Transplant In Hyderabad

  2. What is Liver Transplant? Liver transplant is a surgical procedure in which the liver which is not functioning properly is replaced by a healthy liver or a part of a liver from a living donor or deceased donor. A liver transplant also called as hepatic transplantation, and the procedure known as allograft, can potentially save people in case of a liver failure.

  3. What are the Potential Indications for Liver Transplantation Patients suffering with the following medical conditions are to be considered for the Liver Transplant • Fulminant Hepatic Failure - severe necrosis of hepatocytes or severe disability of hepatic functions in the absence of pre existing liver disease • Liver-based Metabolic Defect - Hereditary hemochromatosis, Alpha-I antitrypsin deficiency (AATD), and Wilson Disease • Cirrhosis with complications such as ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, ascites, hepatocellular carcinoma, hepatorenal syndrome • Bleeding caused by Portal Hypertension

  4. Causes of Liver Transplantation A liver failure may be acute or chronic (happened over a period of time), may lead to cirrhosis, i.e. scarring of the liver. Cirrhosis hampers the liver’s ability to function properly because of scarring. Scar tissues replace the healthy tissues of the liver and make it difficult for the liver to function, leading to liver failure. Some of the major reason for the cirrhosis, leading to liver transplant are: • • • • • • • • Alcoholic liver disease Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease Primary liver cancers Autoimmune hepatitis Metabolic diseases Acute hepatic necrosis Genetic diseases (Wilson's disease & Hemochromatosis) Infections such as Hepatitis B and C

  5. Types of Liver Transplant There are mainly three types of liver transplantation and performed based on the recipient requirements. • Deceased Donor: It is also called as cadaver liver transplant that involves transplantation of liver from a recently deceased donor • Living Donor: Living donor transplant involves transplanting a part of a liver from a living donor. • Split Liver Transplantation: The liver is removed from a recently deceased donor and split into two parts

  6. How long can a person live with Liver Transplant? • As per the recent data, liver transplant survival rate - 90 to 95% of people with liver transplant survive for at least 1 year, 85% of the people may live for at least 3 years and 75% of the people may live for at least 5 years after the transplant. • On an average, liver transplant 10-year survival rate is approximately 65% and liver transplant 20-year survival rate is approximately 55%. Many of them may live more than 20 years after the transplant with improved quality of life.
