Liver progenitor cells-mediated liver regeneration in liver cirrhosis

Hepatology International, 2016
Cirrhosis is defined as the histological development of regenerative nodules surrounded by fibrous bands in response to chronic liver injury.

Liver transplantation for liver cancer

World Journal of Surgery, 1982
AbstractResults in the first 100 orthotopic liver allografts performed in the Cambridge‐King's College Hospital series (1968–1980) are reported. Twenty‐two patients survived beyond a year (age range, 16–59 years). Of these, 12 were cirrhotics and 10 were primary malignancies.

Liver failure is a rare but life-threatening condition affecting a multitude of other organ systems, most notably the brain and kidneys, following severe hepatocellular injury. Liver failure may develop in the absence ('acute') or presence ('acute-on-chronic') of liver disease with substantial differences in pathophysiology and therapeutic options ...

Liver transplantation for alcoholic liver disease

Nature Reviews Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 1993
Alcoholism is a disease of remission and relapse. A lapse in abstinence tends to be viewed as a failure to commit to abstinence, and an acknowledged relapse may lead to the patient's removal from the liver transplant list; however, such a relapse may actually offer insight into alcoholism.
