Research Abstract: 

Liver transplantation is the best treatment for adult and pediatric end stage liver disease. Since 2002, Orthotopic Liver transplantation has been increasingly performed in our country. However, to date, there ahs yet been any formal analysis of the outcome of Orthotopic Liver transplantation. In addition organ donations are hard to get these days. Here we present our retrospective analysis of outcome and causes of death in liver transplant recipients at the department of Hepato pancreatic Biliary Surgery, Selayang Hospital. This study helps us to assess our level of success and analyze causes of death in liver transplant recipients at our centre.
