WhatsappAbout Liver transplant treatment procedure
Liver transplantation is usually the best option for people who have cirrhosis because it cures the disease and allows the person to return to their normal life without worry about future health complications. Liver transplantation is a very complex surgery and there are limited numbers of donors available each year. There are many types of liver transplant procedures, but all involve removing a healthy liver from a donor and placing it into the patient. The most common type of transplant is called a direct swap, in which the donor's healthy liver is placed directly into the recipient's body. In Turkey, liver transplant from living donors only is allowed for international patients and the donor should be a relative of the patient. Liver transplant surgery in Turkey has been shown to be an extremely successful procedure. The country has a high success rate, and many patients are able to return to their normal lives after the transplant. This is in contrast to other countries, where the success rate for liver transplant surgery is much lower.

The factors affecting the cost of Liver transplant treatment are as follows:
- Different hospitals and clinics: The cost of the Liver transplant treatment varies in different hospitals and clinics. The hospitals charge according to their exclusivity and the availability of modern medical instruments and technologies.
- Cost of the doctors: The more the qualification and experience of the doctors, the more will be his or her charge.
- Patient's overall health and age: The older a patient is, the more difficult it is to find a compatible donor organ. Also, chronic diseases such as diabetes or hypertension can also raise transplant costs significantly.
The alternative to liver transplant is undergoing extracorporeal artificial liver devices, bioartificial liver devices using hepatocytes, or hepatocyte transplantation. The pros and cons of each procedure should be asked by you to your healthcare provider in order to make an informed decision.
In the United States or other European countries, Liver transplant treatment can cost 10 times more than what it is in Turkey. The answer for such a low cost is that the cost of living in Turkey is one of the cheapest in the world. In Turkey, not only accommodation is low, but also the medical costs and payments. In addition, competition between clinics also lowers down the cost further.
The success rate of Liver transplant treatment in Turkey is approximately 80%. This high success rate is due, in part, to the high quality of surgical care provided by Turkish liver transplant surgeons. The chances of living after liver transplant is 89% and most people tend to lead a normal life even 30 years after their liver transplant surgery.
