关于我们

UCLA's liver transplantation program is one of the oldest 和 most active in the U.S. Since the program's inception in 1984, our team has performed liver transplants for infants, children 和 adults, focusing on innovative surgical techniques, advances in immunosuppressive drugs 和 quality patient care.

Our experts are responsible for developing some of today's leading techniques 和 are spearheading research efforts to improve care, 扩大捐赠池, 和 better manage 和 treat advanced liver disease.

Why Choose UCLA 肝脏移植手术?

Patients choose UCLA primarily because of our physicians' experience 和 skill. But we also offer services other programs can't provide:

• Some of the nation's best outcomes: Our outcomes are reliably high for our liver transplant recipients, especially considering that we take on patients with highly complex needs. As the most experienced liver transplantation program in the western United States, UCLA serves patients from California, 俄勒冈州, Washington 和 throughout the Southwest, 和 acts as a tertiary referral center for other transplant programs faced with particularly challenging cases.
• Care for all aspects of liver disease: The Pfleger Liver Institute cares for patients with all types of liver disease. We evaluate patients for potential liver transplantation or other care via an interdisciplinary clinic. Patients who do not require transplant may be treated by the Dumont-UCLA Liver 癌症中心.
• Pediatric-to-adult care in one hospital: We are one of only a few programs that offer pediatric care 和 adult care in the same facility. At UCLA, the living donor 和 recipient stay in the same hospital 和 are cared for by the same team. 当一个 pediatric liver transplant recipient is ready, we have a special program to help you transition to adult care.
• Personalized medicine: Our care isn't one-size-fits-all. We provide highly personalized patient care, with teams to meet all your needs 和 all aspects of care. We also offer support groups for patients before 和 after transplant.
• Multi-organ transplant expertise: Our physicians 和 researchers are pioneers in transplanting the liver 和 other organs, including 心脏移植手术, 肾移植 和 intestine transplant.

Innovative Care to Exp和 Transplant Opportunities

Our groundbreaking liver transplant program has developed 和 improved practices that are now st和ard in programs around the world:

• Minimizing rejection: We've developed new treatments to minimize the risk of organ rejection.
• Exp和ing the liver donor pool: Our experience in living donor liver transplant (also known as partial-liver transplant) means our program is focused on exp和ing the pool of potential liver donors. We are one of a h和ful of programs that perform "domino" transplant in patients with amyloidosis. This procedure brings liver donation to more patients by transplanting the amyloid liver into another patient.
• 丙型肝炎: We are pioneers in treating viral hepatitis C 和 in managing pre- 和 post-transplant hepatitis C.
• Research 和 trials: Because UCLA combines an academic campus 和 a hospital, we can offer you breakthroughs 和 clinical trials quickly. Our scientific work has exp和ed knowledge in the field 和 improved clinical results for all patients.
