Liver transplant centers are medical units specially designed for the treatment of liver diseases and the management of conditions requiring liver transplantation. These centers provide services for the treatment of conditions such as cirrhosis, liver cancer, liver failure and other liver diseases. At Enodia Health, we are committed to providing the best care to our patients at our liver transplant centers.
Features of Liver Transplant Centers
- Liver Evaluation and Diagnosis: Liver transplant centers evaluate patients' liver health and diagnose liver diseases with appropriate diagnostic tests. These tests may include blood tests, imaging tests, and liver biopsy.
- Liver Transplant Procedure: Liver transplant is a surgical procedure that involves replacing a patient's damaged liver with a healthy liver from a donor. Liver transplant centers find the appropriate donor match, perform the transplant procedure, and provide post-transplant care.
- Hepatic Oncology Services: In cases of hepatic oncology such as liver cancer, liver transplant centers evaluate patients with a multidisciplinary approach and determine treatment plans. This may include surgical interventions, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and other treatment options.
- Management of Liver Failure: Liver transplant centers provide treatment and management of patients with liver failure. This may include options such as symptomatic treatment, dietary counseling, medication, and liver transplantation.
- Psychosocial Support: Liver disease and the transplant process are fraught with physical and emotional challenges for patients. Liver transplant centers provide resources, such as psychologists, social workers, and support groups, to meet the psychosocial needs of patients and their families.
Liver transplant centers play a critical role in the treatment of liver diseases and the management of conditions requiring liver transplantation. At Enodia Health, we are committed to providing the best care to our patients at our liver transplant centers.
