Is a liver biopsy often done several weeks after a transplant?
In most UK liver transplant centres, it is not considered "routine" practice to do a liver biopsy several weeks after transplant if the patient has a normal liver function. However some centres will offer a liver biopsy at 3 year, 5 year and/or 10 year intervals, regardless of how good the liver function happens to be. Within several weeks of transplant the possibility of liver rejection is highest, so if rejection is even at all to be suspected of occurring a biopsy will be taken pretty swiftly.
What is the rationale for the right side position after liver biopsy?
The liver is a very vascular organ, and very prone to bleeding after any injury, including biopsy. Lying on the right side is a simple way to place pressure on the liver and biopsy site, and reduce the risk of post op bleeding and hemorrhage.
