Cadaveric Liver donation
Cadaver donor is a person with irreversible brain damage who has been declared brain-dead and whose family has agreed to donate the organs for transplantation. This situation arises only in a hospital ICU in a person after brain injury in an accident or in someone who has suffered fatal brain hemorrhage etc. In these circumstances, the whole liver can be used for an adult, and a part of it for a child. After removal from the donor (a process called liver retrieval) the liver can safely be kept preserved outside the body in special preservation solutions for 12-15 hours.


Because there are more people needing liver transplants than there are available donor livers, most potential recipients go on national waiting lists. All organs available for transplantation are matched against the waiting lists to find the most compatible recipient. The length of time on a waiting list may range from months to years

Cadaveric liver transplant
When a donor is available, the recipient (who is going to receive the liver) is called into the hospital and routine blood tests will be done. He will seen by the anesthesiologist. Meanwhile the donor team will be retrieving the liver and if the liver is transplantable, the hospital where the recipient team is waiting will be informed so that the blood bank and operating staff can be alerted.

When the liver arrives, it has to be cleaned which will take one two hours. Meanwhile, the recipient will be prepared for surgery. The surgery takes anywhere between 5 and 15 hours. If it a good quality liver, It starts working immediately in the form of producing good bile and good control bleeding

Allocation of such organs is strictly according to blood group which must match, time on waiting list and urgency of requirement.
