Combined Liver and Intestinal Transplant

A Combined Liver and Intestinal Transplant is a complex procedure performed in patients suffering from severe liver disease along with intestinal failure, often due to conditions like short bowel syndrome or Crohn’s disease. This surgery involves replacing both the liver and a portion of the small intestine from a deceased donor. Post-surgical care is intensive, requiring immunosuppressive medication to prevent organ rejection and long-term monitoring to ensure proper absorption of nutrients.
