Following are the symptoms experienced by the patient suffering from liver disease:
Apart from the above symptoms, the blood tests of the patients with liver disease also show abnormal results such as a low count of blood cells, increased prothrombin time, high serum albumin level, and low level of albumin protein. More severe alterations in various blood components occur in advanced stages.
Liver transplantation surgery is done to replace the unhealthy liver from a new healthy liver. Liver transplant surgery is a complex surgery. The surgeon performing the surgery should be experienced and expert for a successful outcome. The person from whom the liver is taken is a donor, while the person receiving the liver is the recipient. Because of the unique ability of the liver to regrow for a part to the full liver, a living person may also donate a part of his liver.
The donor should be healthy and is not suffering from diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or cancer. The age of donor should be in between 18 years to 55 years and is of sound mind. He should give consent for donating part of his liver voluntarily. The blood group of the donor should be compatible with the recipient.
With advanced technology implemented during surgery and various innovative medications, liver donation has very few risks. The part of the liver remained inside the donor will be fully grown within 2-3 months. The patient has to take medications for only 2-3 weeks, and back to routine activities within a month.
The surgery takes around 4-6 hours; however, it may take more depending upon the patient’s condition. The incision is made to expose the liver. The surgeon will cut the blood supply and bile ducts, and replace the damaged liver with a healthy liver. The blood supply and bile ducts are reconnected to the new liver, and the incision is closed with the help of stitches.
The patient may have to stay at the hospital for a few weeks. During the time of discharge from the hospital, the surgeon and paramedical staff will guide you about the recovery process at home. You may be able to return to routine activities within 4-6 months after liver transplant surgery. The rate of success of liver transplant is quite high, and most patients lead a normal life after transplantation.
