About

Carla Luzzi is a leading expert in hepatobiliary surgery and transplantation, with a focused research interest in the perioperative management of living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Her major contributions center on optimizing the safety and outcomes for both donors and recipients in this complex surgical procedure. Her highly cited 2022 work, “Perioperative management of living donor liver transplantation: Part 2 – Donors,” has garnered 21 citations, underscoring its importance in establishing best practices for donor care. This research addresses the critical challenge of expanding the donor pool, particularly in regions like Asia where LDLT was pioneered to overcome deceased organ shortages. Luzzi’s work has helped refine protocols that minimize donor risk while maximizing graft success, directly impacting clinical guidelines. Her scholarship is notable for its practical, patient-centered approach, bridging surgical innovation with meticulous perioperative care. Through her research, Luzzi has become a key voice in advancing LDLT as a safe, viable option for end-stage liver disease, influencing a new generation of transplant surgeons and anesthesiologists.
