Types of Liver Transplantation. Various types of liver transplantation may be performed depending on the availability of donor organ: deceased donor, living donor split grafts, variable ABO status, and auxiliary liver transplants.
The liver may come from a deceased organ donor or from a living donor. Family members or individuals who are unrelated but make a good match may be able to donate a portion of their liver. This type of transplant is called a living transplant. People who donate a portion of their liver can live healthy lives with the remaining liver. An entire liver may be transplanted, or just a section. Because the liver is the only organ in the body able to regenerate, a transplanted portion of a liver can rebuild to normal capacity within weeks. Why is a liver transplant recommended? A liver transplant is recommended for individuals who have serious liver dysfunction and will not be able to live without having the liver replaced.
