Because Every Kidney Deserves the Best Care.

A kidney transplant is a medical procedure in which a healthy kidney from a donor is surgically placed into a patient whose kidneys are no longer functioning properly. It is the most effective treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or chronic kidney failure, offering patients the chance for a better quality of life and a more normal lifestyle compared to dialysis.

Kidney transplants can be either from a living donor or a deceased donor, and both options require careful evaluation and preparation.

Types of Kidney Transplants

There are various types of kidney transplants

Live-Related Kidney Transplant

A live-related kidney transplant is a kidney donation from a close family member such as a parent, sibling, or child. Such a transplant is quite successful since the organ donated is genetically similar, which lessens the chances of rejection.

Cadaver Kidney Transplant

A cadaver renal transplant is the procedure whereby a kidney is transplanted using an organ that also involves a dead person. This option is suitable for patients who do not have a live donor. Deceased donors have signed a legal document to donate their organs after either clinical or mid-season death.

ABO-Incompatible Kidney Transplant

In the case of an ABO-incompatible kidney transplant, the donor does not have the same blood type as the recipient. With advancements in medicine, it has now become possible for more patients to receive life-saving transplants from incompatible donors.

Swap Kidney Transplant

A swap kidney transplant is a panacea for patients who want to donate organs but do not want to be the donor, as the patients with such willing donors are incompatible. In this process, two or more donor-recipient pairs are made, and the kidneys are exchanged.

Success Rate and Outcomes

The success rate of kidney transplants has significantly improved over the years due to advances in surgical techniques, immunosuppressive therapy, and post-transplant care.
