Kidney Transplant

What is Kidney Transplant?

Kidney transplant, a vital medical procedure, offers a new lease on life to individuals suffering from end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or irreversible kidney failure. This surgical intervention involves replacing a diseased or failed kidney with a healthy kidney from a living or deceased donor. At Metro Hospitals, we specialize in providing comprehensive kidney transplant services aimed at restoring patients’ health and improving their quality of life.

Why Do People Reach the Stage of Kidney Transplantation?

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) progresses over time, often without noticeable symptoms in its early stages. Factors such as diabetes, high blood pressure, autoimmune diseases, genetic predisposition, and recurrent kidney infections can contribute to the gradual deterioration of kidney function. Without timely intervention and appropriate management, CKD can advance to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), where the kidneys fail to function adequately to sustain life. At this critical stage, kidney transplant becomes a crucial option for individuals facing the prospect of lifelong dialysis or worsening health complications.

Who Needs Kidney Transplant?

Patients diagnosed with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD), where conservative treatments like medication and dialysis are no longer effective, are prime candidates for kidney transplant. Additionally, individuals facing complications from diabetes, high blood pressure, polycystic kidney disease, or other renal conditions may require this life-saving procedure.

Benefits of Kidney Transplant

• Improved Quality of Life: Kidney transplant offers recipients the opportunity to regain normal kidney function, allowing them to enjoy a more active and fulfilling lifestyle.
• Enhanced Longevity: Compared to long-term dialysis treatment, kidney transplant significantly improves life expectancy and reduces the risk of complications associated with kidney failure.
• Freedom from Dialysis: Say goodbye to the constraints of regular dialysis sessions and the accompanying dietary restrictions. Kidney transplant provides patients with newfound freedom and independence.
