Kidney Transplant

Overview

Kidney transplant is a surgical procedure where a healthy kidney from a donor is placed into a person whose kidneys have failed. It's the best treatment option for end-stage kidney disease, offering improved quality of life and survival compared to dialysis.

Kidney transplant can be from living donors (usually family members) or deceased donors. Modern immunosuppressive protocols have excellent success rates with proper post-transplant care.
