Living Donor Liver Transplant

Living Donor Liver Transplant in Millers Road

A living donor transplant is when the donor (who is mostly a family member/relative) donates part of his/her liver to the patient. Here, the surgeon first operates on the donor and extracts part of a healthy donor's liver. Then, the liver transplant surgery on the patient begins where the damaged liver is removed and replaced with the part of the liver donated by the donor. The donor will spend around a week in the hospital with roughly 8 weeks of recovery time before they can function normally.

Soon after the transplant, the liver sections of both the donor and recipient regenerate to form a complete liver. Remarkably, the recipient's liver can regenerate up to 85% of its mass within just one week post-transplant.
