A liver transplant is the replacement of a person’s damaged or diseased liver with a healthy liver. Liver transplantation is often considered a treatment option for patients with severe liver disease. One of the most important functions of the liver is to help carry out metabolic processes in our body and help cleanse toxins. If a person’s liver is severely damaged, these functions can be damaged and serious health problems can occur. In this case, a liver transplant may be required. Liver transplantation is usually performed through surgery and the donor liver is transplanted into the patient’s body. However, this procedure is complex and suitable candidates must be identified and suitable donors must be found.
