        | Core Tip | An increase in the average life expectancy paralleled by a demographic shift in the population with end-stage liver disease raises the demand for liver transplantation (LT) among the elderly. The most common indications for LT such as hepatocellular carcinoma, alcohol-related liver disease, hepatitis C virus and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease tend to affect older patients more and more. However, risks need to be weighed against the benefits since the effects of associated age-related co-morbidities in older individuals may affect transplant outcomes. |
