Can a person with liver failure have part of family liver?
Yes, if someone in the family is the same blood group (really crucial), is the same size or bigger than the patient, healthy, willing and over 18 years old. They have to go through many hospital assesments to establish suitablity. Also, transplants with livers that are "related" genetically to the recipient work best if the recipient does not have an auto-immune liver disease. (If the recipient does have an autoimmune liver disease, genetically related livers are best avoided).
