Northwestern Medicine Makes Liver Transplants More Accessible
from In the Loop with Sasha-Ann Simons
Colorectal cancer can spread to the liver, and once it does, patients are often at the bottom of the list to receive a liver transplant. But Northwestern Medicine is now offering a new transplant option for select patients that involves splitting a deceased donor liver in two parts. Reset hears from the first patient to undergo this treatment, Barclay Missen, and one of the surgeons Dr. Zachary Dietch. For a full archive of Reset interviews, head over to wbez.org/reset.
