FAQ's Related to Kidney Transplant Surgeon

What does a Kidney Transplant Surgeon do?

Transplantation is when you put in an organ from a healthy person into someone whose organ is diseased or missing. And a Kidney Transplant Surgeon places a healthy kidney in place of diseased kidney/kidneys. The surgeon not just performs the procedure but handholds you through the preoperative and post operative rehabilitation as well. Recommending the right tests and prescribing medicines is also done by them. The core operation team of the surgeon consists of Technicians, Nephrologist and nurses as well.

What are the tests required before and during consultation for a Kidney Transplant Surgeon?

In order to check if you are the right candidate for a kidney transplant, there are some tests that need to be done such as:

  • HLA Testing
  • Urine Tests
  • Donor-Special Blood Tests
  • Imaging Tests
  • Blood Tests
  • Removing a sample of Kidney Tissue for Testing
  • Urine Output Measurements

Please have a look at some more tests that are important prior to and during the kidney transplant.:

  1. Blood tests
  2. Chest X-ray
  3. chocardiogram
  4. Electrocardiogram
  5. Cardiac stress test
  6. Cancer screening
  7. Colonoscopy
  8. Gynecological examination
  9. Prostate exam
  10. Dental evaluation

The right frequency and timing of the tests is important so that the transplant goes efficiently and the kidneys are well accepted. Echocardiogram, Electrocardiogram and cardiac stress test might be needed based on the doctors opinion.

When should you go to see a Kidney Transplant Surgeon?

Any symptoms that indicate a kidney failure are a good reason for you to a kidney transplant done. It is not necessary that just people on dialysis get the kidney transplant, it is also true that you can get it done before such a situation arises. They also help you with post transplant checkups to see whether your body is accepting the transplanted kidney well. It is the surgeon whom you must consult when you are in the process of deciding whether to get a transplanted kidney or not.
