Abstract
In a survey of living liver donor characteristics, the authors find that those with ambivalence about donation experience the most concerns across multiple areas of consideration about donation, take longer to decide to be tested and to proceed with donating, and have more negative expectations about the surgery, their recovery and their long-term health.
