Also called hepatic transplant, it is the process of replacing a diseased liver with a healthy one from a donor. The most commonly used technique is orthotopic transplantation where a surgeon replaces the diseased liver in the same anatomical position as the original liver. It is the best treatment for end stage liver disease and acute liver failure. A liver transplant is a major surgical procedure and requires some substantial care and recovery.
