Kidney Transplant

A kidney transplant is a life-saving surgical procedure wherein a diseased or non-functioning kidney is replaced with a healthy one from a donor. It is performed to manage end-stage renal disease or chronic kidney disease, thereby enabling patients to live longer and enjoy an improved quality of life under the care of an experienced Kidney Transplant Specialist in Kolkata.

What is a Kidney Transplant?

A kidney transplant becomes necessary when the kidneys are no longer able to adequately filter waste, excess fluids, or minerals from the blood by producing urine. Whether the kidney is sourced from a deceased donor or a living donor, our team of highly trained healthcare professionals is dedicated to ensuring optimal outcomes from the procedure.

Patients may be advised to undergo kidney transplantation for a variety of reasons, including:

  • End-stage kidney disease
  • Severe chronic kidney disease
  • Recurrent kidney disease
  • Acute kidney injury
  • Congenital kidney disorders
  • Other medical conditions, such as vasculitis or lupus

FAQs

Life expectancy varies, but on average, a kidney from a living donor lasts approximately 15 to 20 years, whereas one from a deceased donor may last around 8 to 12 years.
