Before a liver transplant, you will undergo a thorough medical and psychological evaluation, including various tests and meetings with your transplant team to discuss the procedure, risks, and post-operative care. On the day of surgery, you will fast and follow specific medication instructions before being admitted to the hospital. During the surgery, which typically lasts between 6 to 12 hours, you'll be under general anaesthesia while the surgeon removes the diseased liver and replaces it with a donor's liver, connecting the necessary blood vessels and bile ducts. After the surgery, you'll spend days in the ICU for close monitoring and pain management, followed by a hospital stay where regular tests ensure the new liver is functioning properly and immunosuppressive medications prevent rejection. Post-discharge, you'll need frequent follow-up visits, strict medication adherence, and lifestyle adjustments to support your recovery and the long-term success of the transplant.
