Choosing Sheba Medical Center for Pancreas Transplant gives patients access to experienced transplant specialists, advanced abdominal surgery facilities, and comprehensive postoperative care. Established in 1948, the JCI hospital in Ramat Gan, Israel has 1900 beds and provides specialized transplant services.

Pancreas Transplant may be considered for patients with severe insulin-dependent diabetes when the potential benefits of transplantation outweigh the risks of major surgery and lifelong immunosuppression. In appropriate cases, a pancreas transplant may be combined with a kidney transplant, particularly in patients with advanced diabetic kidney disease. Doctors conduct detailed assessments before transplantation to evaluate cardiovascular health, kidney function, immune compatibility, and other factors. Long-term follow-up is essential for monitoring graft function and preventing or managing rejection.
