What is Liver Failure?

Liver failure occurs when large parts of the liver are damaged beyond repair and the liver can no longer function to support life. This critical condition can develop rapidly (acute liver failure) or gradually over many years (chronic liver failure). The liver performs hundreds of essential functions, including filtering toxins from the blood, producing proteins for blood clotting, and aiding digestion. When it fails, symptoms may include jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), fatigue, abdominal swelling (ascites), easy bruising, and confusion (encephalopathy).

What Treatment did we provide to Mahendra Borde at Medicover?

At Medicover, Mahendra Borde was treated with a liver transplant surgery. The liver damage had reached an irreversible stage and the organ was no longer able to sustain his health, so the procedure was deemed the right and only curative option.

Liver transplant surgery involves replacing the diseased liver, either in whole or in part, with a healthy donor liver. This complex procedure was performed with precision, followed by careful post-operative monitoring in a dedicated transplant intensive care unit. Mahendra received careful immunological and infection control management to ensure the success of the new organ.
