Yes, in some cases, TACE can cause liver failure. This can be prevented by choosing the right candidate for the TACE procedure. Assessing the liver functions and current health status is vital before performing the TACE procedure.

Rejection occurs when your immune system attacks the new liver. It happens in 25 to 50% of transplant patients within six months of surgery. After six months, the rejection rate is 5% or less.
