Although several studies have reported favorable outcomes with cadaveric transplantation, the experiences living donor (eLDLT) are limited. The primary objective was to assess one-year survival patients AAH who underwent eLDLT. secondary objectives were describe characteristics, complications following eLDLT, and rate of alcohol relapse. This single-center retrospective study conducted at AIG Hospitals, Hyderabad, India, between April 1, 2020, December 31, 2021.
