Live adult right lobe liver transplantation
A liver transplant involves replacing a diseased organ with a healthy one by surgery, while the liver is taken from a donor. This method is radical and is used for severe organic and functional lesions of the liver when other treatment options remain ineffective. As a rule, the donor is a relative or a person with good biocompatibility. Carrying out such an operation requires a doctor with the highest qualifications and extensive practical experience. Such qualities are possessed by employees of the Tel Aviv Medical Clinic of Israel.
Organ transplantation
The clinic employs specialists who have the necessary knowledge and skills for conducting complex surgery. We use the latest equipment and unique methods of therapy. Our medical staff undergoes special training annually. The wards of the department are equipped with everything necessary for a comfortable stay of patients. The clinic has established rates at the state level. Thus, you get a wide range of services at an affordable price. Organ transplantation involves several stages:
- Conducting a comprehensive examination and clarifying the diagnosis.
- Selection of a donor who is also undergoing research.
- The operation is carried out by a team consisting of surgeons, hepatologists, pulmonologists and cardiologists.
- Rehabilitation of the patient, during which the patient takes drugs that suppress the immune system.
The human condition is constantly monitored by the attending physician. The procedure takes about 15 hours. First, the surgeon removes part of the liver from the donor to remove the gallbladder. Only after this is the removal of the diseased organ. In order for the blood to circulate normally without the liver, the doctor creates many connections between the vessels. After the operation, all blood vessels are sutured, and the wound closes.
Indications for surgery
Liver transplantation is done according to the following indications:
- Cirrhosis;
- Acute liver failure;
- Violation of metabolism due to congenital anomaly;
- The presence of viral hepatitis;
- The appearance of inoperable tumours and other foci of the disease.
The patient rehabilitation period is one month. In a specialized support centre, you can get the help of a psychologist, as well as take a recovery course.
