Kidney Transplant at Fortis Flt. Lt. Rajan Dhall Hospital, Vasant Kunj
About the Procedure
Kidney transplantation means replacement of the failed kidney with a healthy kidney from another person, called a donor, living or deceased. When kidneys fail to filter fluid and wastes, these may accumulate in the body to the harmful level. When the kidneys have lost about 90 percent of their normal functioning ability, patients have kidney failure (or End-stage Renal Disease) and require either dialysis or transplantation to sustain their life. Kidney transplant provides significant quality-of-life benefits and survival in patients with end-stage kidney disease/Kidney failure/ in this condition.
About KTP Clinical Outcome
Monitoring of patient survival over longer and defined periods is regarded as successful outcomes of kidney transplant procedure. Acute rejection within the first-year post-transplantation is a negative predictor of long-term renal allograft survival.
