Information regarding a treatment.

Hiii...My brother has jaundice and he's 17 years old. The consultation being provided is of Liver Dialysis. I have searched through the net but still it would be extremely helpful if any medical professional would explain this procedure to me briefly or atleast the basic things I need to know. As the word 'dialysis' is itself terrifying and that to for a 17 year old boy. That's why!!!

The procedure itself is good in cases which require this treatment. However in your case whether it is required or not, cannot be said without complete evaluation.
