  • Seizures
  • Pale skin color
  • Coffee-colored urine

Treatment of Kidney Transplant

Pre Transplant

Both the recipient and donor undergo thorough evaluations to assess their surgery readiness. They are brought to an optimal state to withstand the procedure.

Transplant

The new kidney is placed in the patient’s lower belly and connected to their blood vessels and bladder. The failed kidneys are usually left in place.

Post Transplant

After surgery, the patient is kept in a post-transplant unit to minimize the risk of infection. Anti-rejection injections may be given to ensure the body accepts the new organ.
