Who May Need a Kidney Transplant?

A kidney transplant might be an option when a person suffers from kidney failure. When the kidney stops functioning entirely, the condition is known as end-stage renal disease. Upon reaching this stage most Urologist in Delhi would most probably recommend dialysis.


While you are on dialysis, your physician will suggest you if it is recommended for you to go through a Kidney Transplant in Delhi. You would have to be healthy enough in order to undergo such a major procedure and would have to tolerate a strict routine of diet and medication for lifelong after the surgery is done. To be a suitable candidate for kidney transplant you would have to be able to follow the doctor’s prescriptions and all the instructions, and take medications without delay. 


In case, you are suffering from other underlying medical conditions that are serious in nature, then undergoing kidney transplant can be really dangerous and wouldn’t likely be a successful procedure. The serious underlying conditions include:

  • Serious infections like bone infections, hepatitis, or tuberculosis
  • Liver disease
  • Severe cardiovascular disease
  • Cancer, or a family history of cancer

Your healthcare provider may recommend you to not undergo transplant if you:

  • Drink alcohol excessively
  • Abuse drugs
  • Smoke

If your doctors suggest that you are a suitable candidate for a kidney transplant, and you too consider a good decision, then you would need to be evaluated at kidney transplant center. Necessary screening and blood tests would be done to make sure that you are good enough for the surgery.
