A transplant quote covers three stages: donor evaluation and surgery, the recipient’s operation and hospital stay, and the first phase of immunosuppression. Donor–recipient matching, any treatment needed before transplant, and time in intensive care all affect the total. Immunosuppressive medication continues lifelong and is a separate ongoing cost.
Yes, subject to strict legal requirements. Under the Transplantation of Human Organs and Tissues Act the organ must come from a near relative, with the relationship documented and verified by the patient’s own country’s embassy, and the case approved by a hospital authorisation committee before surgery. GMVTPS coordinators assist with this documentation before travel.
No. Paying for an organ is a criminal offence under the Transplantation of Human Organs and Tissues Act. Donation must be voluntary, from a near relative or an approved altruistic donor cleared by an authorisation committee. Donors may be reimbursed medical expenses and documented loss of earnings, but never paid for the organ itself.
No procedure is, though outcomes at experienced centres are strong and most grafts function well for many years. Rejection and infection are the principal risks, both managed with immunosuppressive medication and regular monitoring. Results are consistently better with a living related donor than with a deceased donor.
Yes. Many recipients have a functioning graft two decades after transplantation, particularly with a living related donor. Long-term graft survival depends on strict adherence to immunosuppressive medication, control of blood pressure and diabetes, avoidance of infection, and uninterrupted follow-up blood tests.
Dialysis is usually started when kidney function falls to approximately 10–15% of normal, or earlier if fluid overload, severe acidosis, dangerously high potassium or uraemic symptoms develop. The decision is based on symptoms and blood chemistry together rather than on a single creatinine value.
It is possible, but uncommon. Most patients on long-term dialysis have a shorter life expectancy than transplant recipients, which is why transplantation is preferred where a patient is medically fit for it. Full-length sessions, strict fluid and dietary control and well-functioning vascular access all improve long-term survival.
The Institute of Kidney Diseases and Research Centre in Ahmedabad is one of India’s highest-volume public nephrology and transplant institutes and forms part of the GMVTPS network, alongside accredited private hospitals offering dialysis and transplantation. Annual transplant volume is a meaningful quality indicator and can be requested for any hospital in the network.
