Both kids and adults can undergo a liver transplant, depending on the severity of their liver damage. If your child’s liver is not working well and they cannot survive without a new one, then they would have to undergo liver transplant surgery. Most doctors only perform Liver Transplant in Children after they have tried all other possible treatments to save the child's liver.

  3. The most common liver disease in children who require liver transplant is biliary atresia. This is a rare condition related to liver and bile ducts that occurs in newborns. Other conditions for which your child may require a liver transplant are: ·Liver cancer and other liver tumors ·Certain genetic and hereditary liver diseases ·Viral hepatitis ·Too high buildup of iron in the body, causing damage to the organ ·Alpha-1 anti-trypsin, which is an inherited condition that raises the risk for liver disease

  4. During a liver transplant surgery, a diseased liver is replaced with a healthy liver from another person. This new liver might come from an organ donor who has just died.

This living donor can be a family member or someone who is not related to your child but has a matching blood type.
