Liver Transplant
Although severe liver disease is relatively rare in childhood, a small number of children in New Zealand will need a liver transplant each year. The Department of Paediatric Gastroenterology and Hepatology at Starship Children’s Hospital is part of the New Zealand Liver Transplant Unit. The service provides liver transplant assessment, surgery and long-term follow-up for all children in New Zealand who require a liver transplant.
