Get expert care at the best liver transplant hospital in India with full support
Liver transplant is a life saving procedure where a damaged or failing liver is replaced with a healthy liver from a donor. It is usually recommended for patients with end stage liver disease, liver failure, or certain cancers that cannot be treated by medication alone.
Liver transplants in India are performed at globally recognised, high volume centres with outcomes comparable to the best in the world. The surgery is done by a team of experts that include hepatologists, liver transplant surgeons, and critical care specialists.
At Shinon Global, we guide you to the top liver transplant hospital in India, where you receive:
- Treatment from leading surgeons with 20+ years of experience
- Access to NABH and JCI accredited transplant centres
- Advanced technology for pre and post operative care
- Complete documentation and ethical donor support
- Faster surgery timelines usually within 2-3 weeks
Whether you are an Indian resident or an international patient, we ensure your liver transplant journey is safe, affordable, and medically sound from day one.
A liver transplant is recommended when the liver is no longer functioning well enough to keep a person alive. This may be due to long-term liver damage, sudden liver failure, or certain types of liver cancer.
Common conditions that may require a liver transplant:
- Cirrhosis caused by hepatitis B or C
- Alcohol-related liver disease
- Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
- Liver cancer (Hepatocellular Carcinoma)
- Acute liver failure
- Biliary atresia (in children)
- Genetic or metabolic liver disorders
We work closely with the leading centres in India to ensure patients get the right evaluation, treatment options, and long-term care. Whether it’s an adult or a paediatric liver transplant, our team ensures you have complete medical guidance, documentation assistance, and timely access to the right transplant centre.
1. Living Donor Liver Transplant
A part of a healthy liver is surgically removed from a living donor and transplanted into the recipient. The donor is often a close relative like a parent, sibling, or spouse. Since the liver regenerates, both donor and recipient can lead healthy lives post surgery. This is the most commonly performed liver transplant type in India due to shorter waiting times.

2. Deceased Donor Liver Transplant
The liver is obtained from a donor who has been declared brain dead but kept on life support. The organ is matched with the recipient based on blood group, size compatibility, and medical urgency. These transplants depend on organ availability and involve being placed on a national waiting list.
Shinon Global ensures access to both transplant types under expert care in top centres across India including Delhi, Chennai, and Bangalore.
