More than 4 million Americans are living with chronic liver disease. Whether from metabolic issues, alcohol abuse, autoimmune disorders or a genetic condition, chronic liver disease may result in the need for a liver transplant.
Liver transplant offers a path to a life free of liver disease. We talk with Steven Flamm, MD, transplant hepatologist at RUSH about all things liver transplant: who makes a good candidate, what it's like to have the transplant surgery, what life is like after liver transplant and how research is driving new options for people who need a new liver.
