Surely, we have heard about people who are suffering from kidney disease or had already performed kidney transplant. If you visit a kidney dialysis clinic, you may see lots of patients waiting for receiving kidney dialysis. They have to tolerate some pain after each dialysis sessions. The dialysis sessions may have some dangers and risks for the patient and it takes much time. That is annoying for the patients.

Who is the best candidate for kidney transplant? What is the success rate of kidney transplant? What factors affect the success rate of kidney transplantation? In order to answer these questions, we should know the function of a kidney in your body and its role in your health.
We are planning to explain the role of a kidney in our body and answer all questions that your mind is surrounded by them. So please read this article carefully. We assure that it is useful for you.
If we want to provide an understandable and short definition, we should mention that the kidneys are similar to two bean-shaped organs that are located on the sides of spine just below the rib cage. Actually the kidneys act as a filter in our body. They clean up our body from the toxic substances by removing the waste materials and fluids from the blood by producing urine. So it is clear that if they cannot do their duty properly, our blood would be surrounded by toxic substances. So after short time we will pass away. So we cannot ignore the important role of kidneys in our life and our health and we need at least one kidney for surviving.
What is kidney transplant? Follow the rest of this article.
Kidney transplant is a surgical procedure that results in having kidneys that acts as your own kidneys. In other words, your surgeon replaces the healthy kidney from a donor to the recipient who is suffering from diseased kidneys. Therefore, by transplanting new kidneys, the harmful substance and fluid and waste accumulation are cleaned up again and the patient can live normal as other people.
Actually the specialists get the kidney for transplantation from two different sources.
At the moment, by development of science and technologies, kidney transplantation is not so complicated and impossible surgery and the success rate of kidney transplantation has improved in comparison to past. There are some main factors that increase the chance of a successful transplantation. We mention them as follow:
Quick Information | |
|---|---|
cost | from 13000$ to 14000$ |
Hospital Stay | 7 to 10 days |
Minimum Stay in Iran | 3 to 4 weeks |
Before taking any action, the patient has to have a complete medical examination and a series of lab tests which assure your doctor that you are in the good overall health and you are not suffering from any special diseases that will affect the result of your surgery.
2- A matched donor:
An important factor in increasing the success rate of kidney transplantation is finding a good kidney donor who matches the patient. It means if you want to have a successful surgery, you have to find someone to have your tissue type and compatible with your blood group.
If your blood group is O, you can donate to all blood groups. This blood group is called “universal donor”.
And people with AB blood group can receive from other blood groups. If you cannot find a matched living donor, you can receive from deceased donor. Any way you should find a good matched donor.
3- The right time:
In kidney transplantation process, time plays the main and significant role in creasing of the success rate. The earlier is the better. But sometimes finding the good matched donor may takes much time and you should get the dialysis treatment sessions till find a suitable donor.
