Success RateWhat is Living Donor Liver Transplant?
A living-donor liver transplant is a surgical procedure in which a portion of a healthy person’s liver is removed and transplanted into a patient whose liver is no longer functioning properly.
The unique ability of the liver to regenerate allows both the donor and recipient to regain normal liver function within a few months after surgery.
