Liver transplant surgeries address liver failure. This procedure involves removing a malfunctioning liver and replacing it with a healthy liver from a deceased donor or a portion of a healthy liver from a living donor.
The liver plays a vital role in the body, including processing nutrients, producing bile, synthesizing proteins, detoxifying the blood, and regulating immune responses. Liver transplantation is typically considered for individuals with severe complications resulting from end-stage chronic liver disease. In rare cases of sudden liver failure, it may also be a treatment option.
