Liver
Transplantation

Living donor and deceased donor transplants by a team trained at two of the world's top 5 liver hospitals — bringing world-class outcomes to India.

What We Do

A Lifesaving Procedure
Done Right

Liver transplantation is the definitive treatment for end-stage liver disease and certain liver cancers. At SALi, our transplant programme is led by Prof. Dr. Tom Cherian — trained at King's College Hospital London and Birmingham Transplant Unit, two of the world's top 5 liver transplant centres — ensuring outcomes that match international benchmarks.

Living donor transplantation — a healthy family member donates a portion of their liver
Deceased donor transplantation — whole liver from a brain-dead donor
Split liver transplantation — one liver, two recipients (pioneered in Combined Andhra States by Dr. Tom)
Paediatric liver transplantation — including infant and child recipients
91% patient survival rate — matching the world's best centres
Pan-India outreach — follow-up clinics in 15+ cities so patients don't have to travel

What We Offer

Our Approach to Liver Transplantation

Living Donor Transplant
A healthy family member donates a portion of their liver. Both donor and recipient livers regenerate fully. The most common type performed at SALi across India.
Deceased Donor Transplant
A whole liver from a brain-dead donor is transplanted to the recipient. SALi works within India's organ donation network and has performed Split Liver Transplants — one organ, two lives saved.
Paediatric Transplantation
We perform liver transplants in children, including infants. Prof. Dr. Tom Cherian has innovated paediatric transplant techniques and performed transplants in some of India's youngest recipients.
4 Senior Ward Rounds Daily
Post-operative patients receive 4 senior ward rounds per day. Any complication is detected and corrected within hours — far exceeding the standard of care at most Indian hospitals.
91% Survival Rate
Our liver transplant patient survival rate matches the world's best international centres — a direct result of thorough pre-operative evaluation, expert surgery, and intensive post-operative care.
Pan-India Follow-Up
After transplant, patients are followed up at outreach clinics in 15+ cities across India. You don't need to travel to Hyderabad for every appointment — we come to you.
