Liver transplant may be the best choice for some patients with chronic liver cirrhosis as it has been proven to improve the chances of long-term survival.
The main advantage of LDLT is the availability of an organ in the elective setting in the course of a progressive liver disease. This is most applicable in patients with Cirrhosis and Hepatocellular carcinoma. LDLT, from the donor's perspective does carry a risk of not only morbidity but mortality.  To date the surgical mortality risk is estimated at 0.1% for left lateral donation and 0.5% for right liver donation. There are reports of complications like Hepatic artery thrombosis, portal vein thrombosis and especially biliary leaks and strictures occurring at a significantly increased frequency after living as compared to deceased donor liver transplantation(102).
