Living donor liver transplant replaces a failing liver with part of a healthy liver from a living donor. Both the donor's remaining liver and the transplanted part regrow to near-normal size within weeks. For international patients, Indian law requires a related donor and approval from a transplant authorisation committee.

Typical hospital stay: Recipient 2 to 3 weeks; donor 7 to 10 days

Time to plan in India: 2 to 3 months

Who needs it?

  • End-stage liver disease or cirrhosis

  • Liver cancer within transplant criteria

  • Acute liver failure

  • Certain metabolic liver diseases

How it's done

  1. Full evaluation of recipient and donor

  2. Legal documentation and authorisation committee approval

  3. Donor and recipient surgeries on the same day

  4. Lifelong anti-rejection medicines for the recipient

Recovery timeline

  • Donor: 7 to 10 days in hospital, back to normal in 6 to 8 weeks

  • Recipient: 2 to 3 weeks in hospital

  • Close monitoring for 2 to 3 months
