Conditions that require kidney transplant

At Max Hospitals, India, our team of kidney transplant surgeons specialises in treating various conditions that may necessitate kidney transplantation. Here are some of the many conditions we treat:

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)

Chronic Kidney Disease is a progressive condition where the kidneys gradually lose their function over time. In advanced stages, when conservative treatments are no longer effective, a kidney transplant may be recommended to restore proper kidney function.

End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD)

End-Stage Renal Disease is the final stage of kidney disease, where the kidneys are no longer able to function on their own. Patients with ESRD often require dialysis, and kidney transplantation becomes a viable option to improve their quality of life and overall health.

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)

Polycystic Kidney Disease is a genetic disorder characterised by the formation of fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys. As the cysts enlarge, they can lead to kidney damage. In some cases, kidney transplant offers a transformative solution for individuals affected by PKD.

Diabetic Nephropathy

Diabetic Nephropathy is a complication of diabetes that affects the kidneys. Over time, uncontrolled diabetes can lead to kidney damage. For individuals reaching the advanced stages of diabetic kidney disease, a kidney transplant may be recommended to improve both kidney function and overall health.

Glomerulonephritis

Glomerulonephritis is a group of diseases that damage the glomeruli, the tiny filters in the kidneys. Severe cases may lead to kidney failure, necessitating interventions such as kidney transplantation.

Congenital Kidney Disorders

Some individuals may be born with congenital kidney disorders that can progress over time. In cases where these conditions significantly impact kidney function, a kidney transplant may be considered.
