Question
How long can children live after liver transplantation? Are there any data or statistics to refer to?
Answer
According to current medical standards, the long-term survival rate after pediatric liver transplantation is higher than that of adults. This is because children’s own immune systems are in a low-level balanced state during the growth process after transplantation, requiring long-term use of immunosuppressants to combat rejection reactions. However, due to their active nature, children are more susceptible to common diseases, so they have more potential risk factors in the future.
