[Psychiatric intervention in liver transplantation].
We present a review of the current bibliography on psychiatric aspects of liver transplantation. We focused on the preoperative and postoperative transplantation period. In the former, we considered the criteria patient selection, psychiatric screening, psychiatric contraindications and most common psychopathology associated with liver transplantation. In regards to the postoperative period, we looked at the quality of life after intervention and the role of the immunosuppressant treatment (Cyclosporine) concerning psychiatric complications.
