Abstract:
Liver transplantation is a mature treatment for children with end-stage liver disease. With the development of surgical techniques, immunosuppressive therapy, and infection monitoring in recent years, there have been significant increases in the survival rates of patients and liver transplants, helping children to achieve long-term survival. Meanwhile, several issues have emerged, such as viral infection, complications, new-onset tumors, quality of life, and self-management. Therefore, this article reviews related issues in long-term survival in children after liver transplantation from the two aspects of medical treatment and nursing and provides several regimens for reference, so as to provide a basis for long-term high-quality survival in children after liver transplantation. Here, these issues are reviewed.
