A liver transplant is an operation to remove a patient’s diseased liver and replace it with a healthy liver. A liver transplant becomes necessary when liver functions are severely impaired or completely shut down. Cirrhosis, the death of liver cells, is the number one cause for liver transplantation in adults. Cirrhosis may result from viral hepatitis, alcohol abuse, steatohepatitis, and biliary blockage.
