- Original description
Liver Transplantation (LT) is a lifesaving intervention with around 90% of recipients currently surviving the first postoperative year and subsequent life expectancy now exceeding 20 years. After the post-operative recovery period, however, LT recipients become more and more confronted with the challenges of re-engagement with life after transplantation, a need to reach a new stability, reestablish function in everyday life, reconnect with valued roles, regain independence, and resume work Sexual function is a very important parameter in the evaluation of Quality of Life (QoL), as it has been shown that sexual dysfunction in transplant patients is associated with increased depression and decreased QoL. There are several studies in the relevant literature supporting the recovery of sexual function in patients after liver transplantation. It has been found that recovery was observed in erectile dysfunction in male patients 6 months after liver transplantation.Read full original descriptionShow less
