A liver transplant may be recommended for patients with severe liver damage or end-stage liver disease. Some patients with advanced cirrhosis, acute liver failure or selected liver cancers may also need a transplant assessment. The decision depends on the patient's condition and medical evaluation by a liver transplant team.

In a living donor liver transplant, a healthy person donates a part of their liver to the recipient. In a deceased donor liver transplant, the liver comes from a registered deceased donor after the required medical and legal approvals. Both procedures require careful evaluation of the donor and recipient.

Children requiring transplantation need assessment by a specialised paediatric liver transplant team.

ABO-incompatible liver transplantation is a procedure in which the donor and recipient have different blood groups. Special medical preparation and treatment may be required to reduce the risk of rejection. Suitability depends on individual medical factors and specialist assessment.
