It’s often required when your liver fails due to chronic disease, cirrhosis, or acute damage, and other treatments can’t restore function. A transplant replaces your diseased liver with a healthy donor liver to improve survival and quality of life. Your doctor will recommend it based on your liver’s condition and overall health.
Imaging (e.g., CT/MRI) and tests assess your liver and match you with a donor.
General anesthesia keeps you asleep and pain-free during surgery.
Surgeons remove your damaged liver and implant the donor liver, connecting blood vessels and bile ducts.
The incision is stitched closed, followed by intensive monitoring in the hospital.
The procedure usually takes 6-12 hours, depending on complexity. Your surgeon will provide specifics during your consultation.
Liver transplant surgery is safe with experienced teams, but risks include:
Infection at the surgical site
Rejection of the donor liver
Bleeding or bile duct complications
Blood clots
Major complications occur in less than 5% of cases. SB Medical Travels works with top hospitals to minimize risks and optimize outcomes.
Preparation is essential for a successful liver transplant and recovery:
Fast for 8-12 hours prior if under general anesthesia
Review medications with your doctor; some may need adjustment
Pack loose, comfortable clothing for your hospital stay
Arrange for a companion to assist you post-surgery
SB Medical Travels provides a detailed pre-surgery checklist and personalized support throughout the process.
7-14 days, depending on your recovery and liver function.
Focus on rest. Medications manage pain and prevent rejection.
Gradual return to light activities. Avoid heavy lifting or exertion.
Most resume normal routines as the liver adapts, with ongoing care.
Our team coordinates your recovery, including follow-ups and support services as needed.
Pain management is a priority during and after liver transplant surgery:
You’ll be under general anesthesia, so no pain is felt during the procedure.
Expect abdominal soreness; pain relief is provided.
Pain reduces within weeks. Most switch to mild painkillers after 1-2 weeks.
Mild discomfort may persist as the liver heals; support is available if needed.
Our partner hospitals ensure effective pain management, and we’ll support your recovery comfort.
