For patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD) or non-resectable early hepatocellular carcinoma, Liver Transplantation offers a life-saving definitive cure.
Living-Donor vs. Deceased Donor
In Living-Donor Liver Transplantation (LDLT), a healthy living family donor donates a segment (usually right or left lobe) of their liver. Due to the liver's extraordinary regenerative capacity, both donor and recipient livers grow back to near full capacity within weeks.
Donor Safety First
Rigorous pre-operative volumetric CT scans and liver biopsies ensure the donor retains at least 30-35% healthy future liver remnant, making donor hepatectomy an extremely safe procedure in expert hands.
