A Sliver of your liver can save a life
Did you know....
1 in 8 patients who are on the liver transplant list do not get a transplant. An additional 1 in 6 are removed from the transplant list because they are too sick to receive a transplant. Statistically, all instances are completely preventable based on living donor transplants. If you are a match, 50-60% of your donor liver (25% for pediatric patients) is removed. The donor’s remaining liver and the transplanted portion both regenerate, typically reaching normal size and function within a few months. This procedure can save lives, reduce waiting times, and often result in better outcomes for recipients compared to deceased-donor transplants.
