Introduction: The purpose of this research is to determine factors affecting the living situation of patients with liver transplantation according to recipient and donor gender, recipient and donor age transceiver gender cross, recipient gender equality situation, duration of surgery, cancer situation and complication situation.
Materials and Methods: Data of 652 patients who had undergone liver transplantation in the period between 1988 and 10.06.2021 were analyzed within retrospective cohort study. The surgery being performed by our team in all cases eliminated one of the key factors that would affect the factors affecting the living situation of patients with liver transplantation. The data were uploaded to SPSS software for statistical evaluation, for which was applied, T-student and Chi-squared tests.
Results: It was found that female patients live longer than men. Patients who receive liver from cadavers live less than patients who receive liver from living organs. Patients who receive the liver from their parents have the highest survival rate. The life expectancy of those aged 5 and above is shorter than that of those under 5 years of age.  Those who have surgery at later dates have a higher chance of survival. As the duration of surgery increases, survival time decreases. Donor age does not affect survival. There is no dependency between cancer status, complication status, donor age status, transceiver gender cross, receptive gender equality and living situation.
Conclusion: This study reveal women, those with living donors, whose parents are donors, those under the age of 5, and those with a short surgery time have a statistically significantly longer life expectancy while there is no dependency between cancer, complication, donor age, gender cross, gender equality status and living situation.
