Kidney Transplant Surgery

Kidney transplant surgery is a procedure where a healthy kidney from a donor is surgically placed into a person whose kidneys have failed. This surgery helps restore kidney function, allowing the patient to lead a healthier life without dependence on dialysis. The process involves careful matching of donor and recipient to reduce the risk of rejection, and it typically includes receiving immunosuppressive medications to help the body accept the new kidney. Recovery varies, but many patients can return to normal activities within weeks. Overall, it can significantly improve the quality of life for individuals with kidney failure.
