CPMC Liver Transplant

If you have liver disease and it has not responded to therapy, you may be a candidate for one of medicine’s most remarkable surgeries — a liver transplant. The liver transplant program at Sutter's California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco has performed more than 2,100 liver transplants.

    Excellent Transplant Outcomes

    Since opening in 1988, Sutter’s Liver Disease and Transplant Center at California Pacific Medical Center has performed more than 2,000 liver transplants. We see patients at CPMC in San Francisco in addition to 14 regional offices across Sutter’s network in Northern California.

    Data from the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) demonstrate that our program outcomes are among the nation’s best. In fact, our program produced the singular achievement announced by the SRTR in 2014 as the only transplant center in the country to achieve better-than-average outcomes in both liver and kidney transplant programs for one-month, one-year and three-year outcomes. At CPMC, 97.4 percent of liver patients survived one year after transplant compared to the 89.3 percent expected survival rate.

    The most recent data released from the SRTR gave Sutter’s transplant program the longest-running record of statistically better-than-expected patient survival rates in all four measured categories: one-year and three-year patient survival rates with deceased-donor organs; and one-year and three-year organ graft survival rates from deceased donors.

    We're proud of our outcomes and many awards, which reflect the excellence and commitment of our transplant teams, who are at the forefront of clinical research and surgical innovation.

    Our medical staff provides the personal care and support you need, walking you through each stage of liver disease management and transplantation.

    Liver Transplant Evaluation

    Candidates for liver transplant undergo a comprehensive two-to-three-day liver transplant evaluation that will determine if a transplant is needed and feasible through blood work, imaging studies and heart tests.

    Liver Transplant Surgery

    Liver transplant surgery is performed at California Pacific Medical Center, where transplant care teams work with precision and the utmost attention to quality and detail.

    Post Liver Transplant Care

    After your liver transplant, our post transplant care team will get you up on your feet and back to a full and active life by providing the support, education and monitoring you need.

    Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) Research

    Sutter Health Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) Research
    Hepatology researchers are investigating the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying hepatitis B, C and other liver diseases. Identifying early molecular or genetic changes - which may be detected before the disease manifests any clinical symptoms - could lead to interventions that reduce the severity of liver disease, or even prevent it from developing. Clinical researchers in the Liver Disease Management and Transplant Program are leading new investigations into hepatitis B and C disease management, hepatoma, hepatitis and HIV co-infection, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, hepatorenal syndrome, and the care of liver transplant patients.
