Core Tip	Although the number of liver transplants done for alcoholic liver disease has been stable been 2002 and 2012, since 2013 there has been a significant increase. This increase is seen across all age groups, although the proportional increases are higher for younger patients than older ones. The increase corresponds, but is incompletely explained, by a decrease in transplants for hepatitis C - alcoholic liver disease dual listing. The increase was also seen in most, but not all UNOS regions.
