Kidney Transplant in Bangalore

Overview 

Manipal Hospitals Bangalore provides kidney transplant care delivered by multidisciplinary teams who focus on safety, clear communication and kidney transplant in Bangalore support for every patient and their family. Our centre combines advanced surgical technique with comprehensive perioperative planning and personalised rehabilitation to optimise transplant outcomes and restore patient wellbeing. Located centrally in Bangalore, Manipal Hospitals Bangalore offers coordinated diagnostics and rapid evaluation for patients referred for transplantation from across the region.

 

How It Works 

A kidney transplant in Bangalore at Manipal Hospitals begins with a comprehensive evaluation involving nephrology, transplant surgery, and anaesthesia teams who assess medical history, imaging, and laboratory results to determine patient eligibility. This pre-transplant phase also includes cardiac and infection screenings to ensure optimal surgical readiness. For living donor transplants, potential donors undergo compatibility testing, tissue crossmatching, and psychological evaluation to confirm suitability and obtain informed consent. Deceased donor transplants, on the other hand, are coordinated through authorised allocation networks, ensuring ethical and timely organ retrieval.

The transplant surgery is performed in advanced operating theatres equipped with specialised instruments and real-time monitoring systems. Surgeons meticulously perform vascular and ureteric reconstruction to establish proper blood flow and urinary drainage to the new kidney. Post-surgery, patients are moved to a dedicated transplant ICU, where intensive monitoring helps manage early graft function and detect complications promptly.

A carefully structured immunosuppressive regimen is initiated to prevent rejection while minimising side effects. Continuous follow-up with nephrologists, dietitians, and rehabilitation experts supports recovery, medication adherence, and long-term graft survival.
