Patient Education
Kidney Transplant
Another method to treat kidney failure is to place a healthy kidney from another person in the patient’s body. This is done surgically by the transplant surgeon and if successful the patient will no longer need dialysis. The kidney can come from living people like family or friends (Living Donor) or from people who have willed their kidney to be donated when they die (Deceased Donor). The patient receiving the kidney will need to take medications to prevent the body from rejecting the kidney.
