Liver transplant care at Mar Sleeva Medicity Palai in Kottayam, Kerala includes a dedicated Liver Transplant Clinic providing a coordinated pathway from patient assessment and donor evaluation through transplant readiness and long term follow up care. Transplant care is supported by the wider gastro sciences service, including endoscopic management of complications of liver disease, interventional radiology and dedicated perioperative critical care.
The clinic covers patient assessment, donor evaluation, transplant readiness and long term follow up care, so each stage is coordinated within the same centre. Patients with advanced liver disease are assessed to determine whether liver transplantation is an appropriate treatment option, with transplant planning based on individual clinical factors.

The department manages the full spectrum of gastrointestinal, hepatic, pancreatic and biliary conditions. This includes acid reflux disease, peptic ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis), irritable bowel syndrome, liver diseases, pancreatitis, gastrointestinal bleeding, gastrointestinal cancers and all conditions requiring diagnostic or therapeutic endoscopy.
Capsule endoscopy involves swallowing a small, vitamin sized capsule containing a tiny camera. As it passes through the digestive tract, it captures thousands of images of the small bowel, an area that is difficult to reach with conventional endoscopy. It is used to evaluate conditions such as obscure gastrointestinal bleeding, Crohn’s disease and small bowel tumours.
Most endoscopic procedures are performed under conscious sedation or short general anaesthesia, so patients typically experience minimal discomfort. The gastroenterology team at Mar Sleeva Medicity Palai ensures patient comfort and safety with ICU level monitoring during and after the procedure.
