Kidney transplantation is a surgical procedure to replace a failing or diseased kidney with a healthy donor kidney. It is often the treatment of choice for end-stage renal disease (ESRD), providing better quality of life and survival rates compared to dialysis. Candidates for kidney transplantation undergo a thorough evaluation to ensure they are suitable for the procedure. Donor kidneys can come from deceased or living donors. The transplantation process involves matching the donor kidney with the recipient’s blood type and tissue type to minimize the risk of rejection. Post-transplant, patients must take immunosuppressive medications to prevent their immune system from rejecting the new kidney. Regular follow-up care is essential to monitor kidney function and manage any potential complications. Kidney transplantation can significantly improve a patient’s quality of life, enabling them to return to normal activities and dietary habits.
