What is renal transplantation?

Kidney transplantation is a life-saving procedure that replaces a diseased or non-functioning kidney with a healthy kidney from a living or deceased donor. For many patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), transplantation offers better long-term survival, improved quality of life, and greater independence compared to long-term dialysis.

  • Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD Stage V)
