A liver transplant process

Some people are afraid to become donors even if a life of a close person is at stake. It is worth knowing that donor’s liver recovers to usual size for several weeks, and a donor comes back to a normal healthy life. In India, due to the state-of-the-art equipment and experience of world-class doctors, the survival rate for a donor is 100%. Doctors save at least 30% of the donor’s liver. 6 weeks before the operation, a donor has to stop smoking and taking drugs without doctor’s prescription.

If a patient has a donor, it is necessary to send all the previously done tests to the chosen hospital, and then specialists decide whether the procedure is possible to be conducted.

Indian hospitals are friendly to foreign patients so that they are ready to perform liver transplant in the short term. The period of hospital stay is approx. 21 days for a recipient, for a donor - 8-10 days.
