Liver transplant patients can normally survive for about 5~10 years or even longer after the surgery. Artificial liver is just a kind of substitute treatment, mainly to help prolong the time of searching for liver source, and it can not be used to treat liver diseases. Liver transplantation is mainly applicable to the treatment of liver cirrhosis, liver failure and tumors, etc. Through surgery, a healthy liver is transplanted into the body to replace the diseased liver and maintain normal function, the patient’s rejection reaction to the liver is weaker, the 5-year survival rate after surgery can reach 70%, and the patient can normally survive for 5~10 years, which is an effective way to prolong the life of patients with liver diseases and also reduce pain. Artificial liver is a kind of alternative treatment, which can temporarily replace liver function to maintain normal life and survival, but cannot be used in the long term, and can help patients prolong their lives to a certain extent until a suitable liver source or liver function improvement method is found. Liver transplantation and artificial liver can both prolong the survival time of patients with liver disease to a certain extent. You can choose the appropriate way under the guidance of your doctor to carry out treatment to prolong the survival time and improve the quality of life.
