LDLT- A living-donor liver transplant is a surgery in which a portion of the liver from a healthy living person is removed and placed into someone whose liver is no longer working properly.The donor's remaining liver regrows and returns to its normal size, volume and capacity within a couple of months after the surgery. At the same time, the transplanted liver portion grows and restores normal liver function in the recipient. To be considered for a living-donor liver transplant, both the donor and recipient must undergo a thorough health and psychological evaluation at a transplant center.
DDLT - Deceased donor livers come from people who have brain dead suddenly, usually from an accident or other unexpected cause. These individuals are anywhere from one to 70 years of age, were relatively healthy before their deaths and their families have made the decision to donate their organs. Any patient advised for Liver Transplant who do not have a family member, loved one or other individual willing and able to donate a liver, then he will be put on a waitlist to receive a transplant from a deceased donor aftet completing Liver Transplant workup.
