Is a kidney specialist the same as a urologist?

A nephrologist focuses on diseases and conditions that affect the kidney more directly while a urologist deals on diseases and conditions that can affect the male and female urinary tract.

Can a male receives a female kidney?

The gender of donor and recipient plays a larger role in kidney transplants than previously assumed. Female donor kidneys do not function as well in men due to their smaller size.

Why are kidneys not removed during transplant?

The kidney transplant is placed in the front (anterior) part of the lower abdomen, in the pelvis. The original kidneys are not usually removed unless they are causing severe problems such as uncontrollable high blood pressure, frequent kidney infections or abnormally increased in size.

What is the longest a kidney transplant has lasted?

According to the reports, the world's longest surviving kidney transplant was 32 years.

How painful is it to donate a kidney?

The donor will feel tenderness, itching and some pain as the incision continues to heal.
