pubmed:abstractText |
The most effective treatment for acute or chronic liver failure is orthotopic liver transplantation. Worldwide there is a shortage of organs for transplantation. This shortage has called for research into new treatments for management of patients with liver failure. One such treatment is hepatocyte transplantation. During liver resections considerable amounts of normal liver are unavoidably resected. We aim to harvest these hepatocytes and to filter the tumor cells from them to provide a source for transplantation.
