Core Tip	Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) related cirrhosis is anticipated to become the leading indication for liver transplantation within the next one or two decades. In this review, we discuss how liver transplantation is affected by non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), specifically the following: the increasing need for liver transplantation due to NASH; the impact of the increasing prevalence of NAFLD in the general population on the quality of deceased and live donor livers available for transplantation; the long term graft and patients outcomes after liver transplantation for NASH, and, finally; the de novo occurrence of NAFLD/NASH after liver transplantation and its impact on graft and patient outcomes.
