Role of the Kidney Transplant Team at Hiranandani Hospital

Understanding the risks and complications associated with kidney transplants is crucial for patients considering this life-saving procedure. At Hiranandani Hospital, the kidney transplant team prioritizes educating patients about potential challenges to ensure they are well-informed and prepared. While kidney transplants have high success rates and can significantly improve quality of life, they are not without risks. Some of the primary concerns include the possibility of organ rejection, where the recipient's immune system attacks the transplanted kidney. Hiranandani Hospital kidney transplant experts closely monitor patients for signs of rejection and provide immunosuppressive medications to reduce this risk, although these medications can have side effects such as increased susceptibility to infections and certain types of cancer.
