Living Donor Organ Donation

Living donor organ donation involves a healthy person choosing to donate one of their organs—such as a kidney or a part of their liver—to someone in need of a transplant. Because these organs can often function well after removal, donors can save or significantly improve the recipient’s life. The process includes thorough medical evaluations to ensure donor safety and compatibility. Living donation offers the advantage of shorter waiting times and often better transplant outcomes, making it a vital option to address organ shortages and enhance patient survival.
