Options if you do not have a Blood Group matched Family Donor
You have three options: SWAP LIVER TRANSPLANT ABO INCOMPATIBLE LIVER TRANSPLANT CADAVERIC (DECEASED DONOR) LIVER TRANSPLANTSwap Liver Transplant Program at Medanta In this procedure, we help in legal exchange of donor livers between two families - both with patients who cannot undergo transplant with livers from their own donors. For eg., family 1 has recipient blood group A and donor blood group B. Family 2 has recipient with group B and donor with group A (Rh + or -ve does not matter). All the 4 (2 recipients and 2 donors) of these two families are operated at the same time and the donor livers are exchanged. Hence swap transplant is generally possible in 2 situations - if the recipient blood group is A and donor's is B, or if the recipient blood group is B and donor's is A. Swap is also sometimes possible if the liver from the family donor is too small or too big (volume exchange).
