Description
Nicholas Wong and five co-authors review ethical frontiers in liver transplantation. Transplantation is a lifeline for end stage liver disease, and surgical and procurement advances have been large. Ethical dilemmas persist across the whole pathway, from the definition of death to long term follow up of recipients.
The review searches five databases to February 2024 for work on transplant ethics. Core principles of justice, autonomy, and beneficence frame the analysis. Topics include organ allocation and recipient choice, donation rules, transplant tourism, and new technologies that shift what is possible. Societal acceptance and public perception also shape policy. The authors map modern challenges to help clinicians and policymakers weigh hard trade offs fairly.
