Liver donation in principle does not affect the donor’s life expectancy, but a small number of donors may have their life expectancy affected by post-operative complications. Liver donation usually requires the donor to have good liver function and no underlying liver disease. In addition, donor livers usually only require a small portion of the liver, with most of the liver remaining in the donor’s body. The regeneration and repair ability of liver cells is very strong. Usually, donors are able to regain the original volume and size of the liver and restore its normal function within six months after the operation, so it will not affect the normal life expectancy of the donor, and they are able to live their lives as normal people. However, a small number of donors may have complications such as hemorrhage and biliary fistula after the operation, which may jeopardize the donor’s life and health and lead to a shorter life expectancy if not dealt with in a timely and effective manner.
