Expanding the donor pool for liver transplants: A 2014 summary

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

There has been a large gap between the number of patients awaiting liver transplants and those receiving them. In the East, living-donor liver transplant has become the major source of grafts, whereas in the West, deceased-donor grafts have been the major source for liver transplants. Some newly developed or developing donor types are discussed.
