[Expert consensus on the clinical application of gut microbiota transplant therapy in chronic liver disease (version 2025)].

Abstract

The gut microbiota plays an important role in maintaining host health and liver function, and gut microbiota transplant (also known as fecal microbiota transplantation) has shown potential clinical benefits in the treatment of chronic liver disease. To help clinical professionals to quickly master and standardize the clinical application of gut microbiota transplant in chronic liver disease, the Group of the Liver Disease-related Gastroenterology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association organized experts in related fields to formulate the "Expert Consensus on the Clinical Application of Gut Microbiota Transplant in the Treatment of Chronic Liver Disease" such as chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis and liver cancer, including indications, contraindications, effectiveness, safety, donor selection, transplant routes, transplant precautions, prevention and treatment of adverse reactions, and other aspects to provide reference and guidance for clinicians to implement gut microbiota transplant.
