Liver Transplant Treatment Hospital in Hyderabad

At Yashoda Hospitals Hyderabad, we offer a wide range of liver treatments to treat various liver ailments and liver-related diseases. Our specialists aim at providing the best treatment to all our patients. The treatments provided at Yashoda Hospitals include:

Minimally Invasive Surgery: Also known as laparoscopic surgeries, expert surgeons at Yashoda Hospitals specialize in performing surgeries wherein they only make minimal incisions in order to decrease the wound healing time and therefore the risk of infection. This treatment is most appreciated by patients. 

Deceased Donor Liver Transplant: It is, perhaps, the most common type of liver transplant surgery as most liver transplantations use a liver from a deceased donor. For such transplants, the liver comes from a donor who is “brain dead” but all their other organs are functioning. Once a healthy, functioning liver is obtained, the diseased liver is removed from the patient undergoing the transplant and is replaced with the donor’s healthy liver. 

Living Donor Transplant: In living donor transplant, the donated organ comes from a person alive. It’s usually a family member or a close relative. Since the liver can regenerate itself, a portion of the healthy liver is taken from the donor and transplanted in the patient. With its regenerative abilities, the remaining portion in the donor and the portion transplanted in the patient grow up to normal capacity in about a year.

Split Transplant: In this type of transplant, the liver from a deceased donor is divided into two halves and is used for two different transplant recipients. 

Domino Transplant: This type of liver transplant is rarely performed. In a domino transplant, a donated liver from a living or deceased donor is transplanted into one recipient, and the liver of that recipient is transplanted into another recipient. There are very specific criteria that need to be fulfilled by both the recipients for this type of transplant to be performed. Usually, the recipient who receives a new liver has a genetic condition that enables their liver to disfunction, and that liver is “dominoed” to, preferably, an older recipient who won’t be affected by that condition, or the occurrence of the disease and symptoms will take longer than natural life expectancy. 

Auxiliary Liver Transplant: In this type of liver transplant, the donated liver is placed alongside the native liver in the recipient, without removing it.
