Sections provide an overview of the history and indications for liver transplantations as well as coverage of current practices used in transplantation. Next, donor and liver graft assessment are discussed with specific coverage of diseases that carry a risk of recurrence after liver transplantation, including hepatocellular carcinoma, NASH, primary biliary cholangitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and viral hepatitis.
