    Liver Transplant

    California Pacific's Liver Disease & Transplant Program opened in 1988 and we have performed more than 1,200 liver transplants since then. Presently, we see nearly 1,000 new liver disease patients and perform more than 50 transplants annually. Our outcomes reflect the excellence of our transplant hepatologists and surgeons who are at the forefront of both clinical research and surgical innovations.

    We are committed to providing the highest quality of care and publicly reporting our transplant outcomes. The graphs below show two markers of transplant quality: patient survival and graft survival.

    Graft Survival

    Liver Transplant: Graft Survival
    Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients Release January 2012

    Results1 month:
    Patients receiving transplant between 07/01/2008 and 12/31/2010    		1 year:
    Patients receiving transplant between 07/01/2008 and 12/31/2010    		3 years:
    Patients receiving transplant between 07/01/2006 and 06/30/2008
    CPMC Results97%90%85%
    statistically higher than expected
    Expected94%83%76%
    United States95%86%75%

    The "expected" value is calculated based on transplant patient and donor characteristics which take factors such as age and patient diagnosis into consideration. The expected patient survival rate is the patient survival rate we would expect to see based on our patient and donor population's characteristics. A "statistically higher" difference between observed and expected value shows an extremely high quality of patient care.
