Liver Transplant for Biliary Atresia | Alicia's Story
Alicia was diagnosed with biliary atresia at 3 weeks old. The family flew from Nairobi to Baltimore to get additional care and ultimately a liver transplant for Alicia at Johns Hopkins Children's Center. After finding out both parents were a match for liver transplant, Alicia's father decided to be the living donor for Alicia. Alicia became the youngest living donor transplant recipient at Johns Hopkins and possibly, in the country.
