Article Synopsis
- Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency is a genetic disorder leading to ammonia buildup in the liver, resulting in severe neurological damage, and liver transplantation can effectively cure it.*
-
- A study reviewed 29 liver transplantation cases for this deficiency, noting that while most patients stabilized post-surgery, some faced issues with uncontrolled hyperammonemia.*
-
- Proper anesthesia management is crucial for successful surgeries, and using carrier donors is discouraged due to risks of recurrence of the condition after transplantation.*
