The liver transplantation (ltx.) is currently the only efficient treatment of the diseases which lead to the end stage liver failure. The proper time to perform the operation and the evaluation of the survival time, with or without transplantation, are the most important aspects of qualifications to the liver transplantation. There are no specific criteria of patient qualification for liver transplantation and there are no objective quantitative liver function tests. There were created many prognostic models for evaluation patients with chronic liver diseases. Some of them, the most popular, are presented in this article. We assume, that probability of one year survival less than 90% is the indication for ltx. However, the most important is total evaluation of clinical condition of the patient with liver failure. Such a complicated problem like qualification patients for ltx. needs to be solved by a team of experts from different medical specializations.
