When Vicky needed a liver transplant, her friend Zoë donated part of hers. 💚 Thanks to expert care at @nyphospital, @weillcornell & Drs. @juampirocca and @BenSamstein, their journey became a success. Now they’re raising awareness. You can help: 🔗 https://t.co/K16jbYx3DO

This week at NYP/Weill Cornell we completed our 3rd robotic liver transplant, this time using a right lobe living donor graft. Amazing team effort running 2 simultaneous robotic rooms for donor and recipient.

Embracing a "robotic-preferred approach" in 2022 significantly changed our division's practice of liver surgery and transplantation during 2023, expanding MIS benefits to complex hepatectomies, donor hepatectomies, and hepatectomy during transplantation.

Up to 70% of people with type 2 diabetes have #NAFLD. On #NYPAdvances, @DBrandmanMD discusses how screening through primary care providers can help detect patients at high risk for fatty liver disease. https://t.co/wESIktv96s @ColumbiaMed, @WeillCornell #ThinkLiverThinkLife
