How long can an artificial liver last

During regular physical examinations, liver function tests are an essential test item, which also indirectly reflects the harm that liver problems cause to the body. However, many people still do not pay attention to liver health issues, resulting in serious damage to liver tissue. Although artificial liver can effectively alleviate the problem of liver tissue damage to a certain extent, how long can the artificial liver last?

When the liver is severely damaged and an artificial liver is needed, it is an emergency treatment method, which mainly provides the liver with a chance to recover. Moreover, the effect of this treatment is not long-lasting. Usually, regular and multiple treatments are required to ensure that the liver's functioning is not damaged. For each patient with an artificial liver, the repair effect of the liver itself will be different, and the effect of subsequent continuous treatment will also be different, so the specific survival time after artificial liver surgery is not fixed.

Generally speaking, after artificial liver surgery, as long as regular treatment is carried out and the recovery of liver cells can be promoted, the survival time can be as long as ten years. However, if the liver itself does not repair well after artificial liver surgery, or if there is financial pressure and treatment cannot be continued, the rate of liver necrosis or failure will be accelerated, and the body's internal operating state will be seriously damaged, and the patient will only be able to survive for a few months or even two to three years.

Understanding the patient's own liver damage, ongoing treatment, and the degree of liver repair itself will directly affect the survival time after artificial liver surgery. Therefore, without relevant treatment and determination of the effectiveness of liver repair, it is naturally impossible to further determine the survival time. But no matter what they say, in general, the survival time fluctuates effectively from a few months to ten years, and the final precise survival time will definitely vary from person to person.

From the above content, we can clearly understand that the survival time after artificial liver surgery is affected by many factors, so when personal conditions are different, the length of survival time will definitely vary from person to person. Therefore, after artificial liver surgery, relevant determination must be made based on the individual's liver recovery before a certain understanding and determination of the survival time can be achieved. Usually after artificial liver surgery, the survival time will fluctuate between several months and ten years. Ultimately, the length of this survival time will be closely related to the individual's specific recovery after surgery. Not every patient will survive for a fixed number of years.
