Or it may be someone who is not related to you but whose blood type is a good match. Liver transplant surgeons recommend as well as perform liver transplant surgery on patients who have severe complications due to end-stage chronic liver diseases. Liver transplant is also a suitable option in the cases of sudden liver failure.

What are the qualifications of a Liver Transplant Surgeon?

A person aspiring to become a liver transplant surgeon needs to qualify the medical entrance exam to get into a medical school. Once the candidate clears the entrance test, he/she completes a five-and-a-half-year programme (MBBS). Then, they go for a three-year MS course to specialise in surgery. They then complete a general residency like any other doctor. Finally, they have to complete an additional three years of a liver transplant surgery fellowship.

  • Doppler ultrasound: Used to determine if the blood vessels to and from the liver are open.
  • Computed tomography (CT scan): Used to get pictures showing liver size and shape, any liver lesions, and blood supply. A chest CT scan might also be required.

  • Blood tests to find out blood type, biochemical status of blood, clotting ability, and to measure liver function.
