Kidney Transplantation
in Bangalore

A Kidney transplant or renal transplant surgery is a complex procedure that involves transplantation of a kidney in patients suffering from end-stage kidney disease. The kidney transplant procedure can be classified as living donor and deceased donor kidney transplant.

At Manipal Hospital Old Airport Road, Bangalore, we specialise in kidney transplantations and take pride in being widely regarded as one of the best hospitals in India for kidney transplants. Our highly skilled kidney transplant surgeons specialise in performing a wide range of kidney transplants, including living donor kidney transplants, swap kidney transplantations, and high-risk transplant procedures such as dual organ transplants (kidney-pancreas or liver-kidney transplant). We pride ourselves on utilising advanced techniques and providing personalised treatment plans to ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients, even in the most challenging cases.

Hemodialysis is a treatment for patients suffering from end-stage renal disease (ESRD) performed in a centre several times per week. The process mimics the natural process which takes place inside the kidneys. It may also be used as a backup mechanism until a compatible donor is found for a transplant.

The dialyser is separated into two sections: one for blood and the other for a cleansing solution called dialysate. Vascular access is accomplished with a minor surgery with the insertion of an AV fistula or graft or a catheter. During hemodialysis, blood is filtered outside the body. Unfiltered blood is drawn from the body and directed to the dialyser for cleaning. The cleaned blood then flows back into the body. The team at our state-of-the-art dialysis unit will monitor your treatment and ensure the dialysis process takes over the function of your kidneys properly. A dietician will also help provide instructions on your dietary requirements.

FAQ's

The transplant team that you visit during your evaluation will request multiple tests to determine if you can qualify for a transplant. Testing includes blood samples, regular cancer screening studies, cardiac evaluation, and other diagnostic imaging tests to assess the anatomy of your vessels. The transplant coordinator will help you get all the testing done for your qualification.

A kidney transplant evaluation is extensive. It requires many diagnostic tests to determine your needs, and each patient requires different tests.

Kidney failure, also known as chronic kidney disease (CKD), occurs when the kidneys lose the ability to filter toxins, regulate blood pressure, and produce red blood cells.

A kidney transplant presents an alternative treatment, offering a higher quality of life by freeing you from frequent, time-consuming dialysis sessions. Compared to dialysis, a transplant can also increase your life expectancy.

Kidney transplants are performed across all age groups at Manipal Hospital Old Airport Road. We consider adult kidney transplants even in advanced age, depending on the individual's overall health. Contact us to determine if you meet the criteria.
