    Liver Transplant in most cases needs to be a family member who needs to volunteer and undergo surgery to remove part of their liver which in turn will be transplanted to the patient. Some of the things that you would need to be aware is that the blood group of the family member matches and the donor has to be between the age groups of 16 and 60 years of age. There will be other tests that are done to determine if the anatomy and size of the liver is suitable and if the liver is not fatty.
