A kidney transplant or renal transplant is the transplant of a kidney into a patient with end-stage kidney disease (ESRD). It includes pre-transplant check-ups, donor tests, stent removal, transplant surgery, and hospital stays for both patient and donor.
The average cost of a kidney transplant in India ranges from INR 5 lakhs to INR 8 lakhs for Indian patients, while it costs USD 10,500 - USD 15,000 for international patients.
For kidney transplant recipients, this cost includes a one-day hospital stay before the surgery, a surgeon's fee, OT charges, anaesthesia charges, pre-transplant investigations related to the procedure, and an 11-day hospital stay after the surgery. While for the donor, this cost covers pre transplant investigations related to the procedure and a 5-day stay in the hospital.
However, the prices may vary depending on various factors, including the severity of the condition, the hospital, the doctor's expertise, etc.
Before the kidney transplant procedure, the patient is required to stay as an outpatient for 15-20 days for the preparation of documentation related to the transplant. Post kidney transplant procedure, the patient has to stay near the hospital for two months with 2-3 weeks stay as an outpatient for follow-ups.
Given these extensive preparations and follow-ups, patients and donors must plan thoroughly to ensure a more successful transplant outcome.
Kidney failure is a serious and complex medical condition that requires careful management and intervention. People with severe kidney disease or kidney failure who are no longer responding well to other treatments like dialysis may need a kidney transplant.
A kidney transplant is a surgical procedure that is performed to replace a diseased/injured kidney with a healthy kidney from a donor. The donor kidney can come from a living organ donor or sometimes from a deceased donor.

I was diagnosed with a urological disease and came for treatment in India. Dr. Narmada Prasad Gupta did my treatment and I recovered quickly. He is the best urologist in India. Thankyou!

I came from Fiji to Aakash Hospital, India, for my kidney stone treatment, which was done without any problems. I am relieved now. A big thanks to them. It is a highly recommended hospital. I was living with kidney stones for the past 4 years. I finally got relieved from the disease when Dr. Vikas Agarwal treated me. Thank you so much, I am grateful to you.

The surgery usually takes about 3-4 hours. This duration can vary slightly depending on factors such as the complexity of the surgery, the patient's overall health, and any unforeseen complications during the procedure.
Donor kidneys can come from living donors (like a family member or friend) or from deceased donors (someone who has recently passed away).
Individuals between 18-65 years of age can be a potential kidney donor. However, the donor also needs to be in good health and pass the mandatory medical evaluation tests.
Approximately 95% of patients maintain good kidney function after five years, with 40-50% retaining function for up to 10 years. If the transplant fails, a second transplant is a possible option with a good success rate.
About 90-95% of kidney transplant recipients survive the first year after the transplant. With excellent post-transplant care, many patients live 15-20 years or longer after their transplant.
Like any major surgery, there are risks such as infection, bleeding, or the body rejecting the new kidney. However, doctors take many precautions to minimize these risks.
Yes, many people lead normal, active lives after a kidney transplant, but it is essential to follow your doctor's advice and take your medications regularly.
