Kidney Transplant in Gomti Nagar Extension, Lucknow – Swastik Urology Clinic
Swastik Urology Clinic in Gomti Nagar Extension, Lucknow provides comprehensive kidney transplant evaluation, counselling and long-term post-transplant care under the expert guidance of Dr. Aditya Sengar (Urologist & Kidney Transplant Surgeon). Kidney transplant is the most effective treatment for patients with end-stage kidney disease, offering better quality of life, improved survival and freedom from long-term dialysis when compared to other treatment options.
What is a Kidney Transplant?
A kidney transplant is a surgical procedure in which a healthy
kidney from a living
or deceased donor is placed into a patient whose own kidneys are no longer able
to function adequately.
The transplanted kidney takes over the work of filtering blood, removing waste
products and maintaining
fluid and electrolyte balance.
Kidney transplant is recommended for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), where kidney function has permanently declined and dialysis alone is not sufficient for long-term well-being. With proper evaluation, surgery and lifelong follow-up, transplant patients can lead active and productive lives.
Successful kidney transplantation requires careful donor selection, immunological matching, meticulous surgical technique and strict adherence to post-transplant medicines and follow-up.

End-Stage Kidney Disease & Dialysis Dependence
Patients who require regular dialysis due to severely reduced kidney
function may be candidates
for kidney transplantation. Transplant offers better long-term survival,
improved energy levels
and fewer dietary and fluid restrictions compared to lifelong dialysis.
Improved Quality of Life After Transplant
Most transplant recipients experience significant improvement in
appetite, strength,
mental well-being and ability to return to work and daily activities.
Kidney transplant
restores near-normal kidney function when managed appropriately.
Reduced Long-Term Complications Compared to Dialysis
Long-term dialysis can lead to complications such as heart disease, bone
disorders and
repeated infections. Kidney transplant reduces these risks and provides
better overall
survival when compared to remaining on dialysis.
Lifelong Follow-Up & Medication Adherence
After transplant, patients must take immunosuppressive medicines
lifelong to prevent rejection.
Regular follow-up, blood tests and monitoring are essential to ensure
long-term graft survival
and overall health.
Causes & Conditions Leading to Kidney Failure
Kidney transplant is considered for patients whose kidney function has
permanently declined due to:
1. Diabetes Mellitus – The most common cause of chronic kidney failure.
2. Long-Standing High Blood Pressure – Causes progressive kidney damage over time.
3. Chronic Glomerulonephritis – Inflammatory diseases affecting kidney filters.
4. Polycystic Kidney Disease – A hereditary condition causing cyst formation and kidney enlargement.
5. Obstructive & Reflux Nephropathy – Long-standing urinary obstruction or reflux.
Thorough evaluation including blood tests, imaging, cardiac assessment and infection screening is required before listing a patient for kidney transplantation.

Who is eligible for a kidney transplant?
Patients with end-stage kidney disease who are medically fit and do not have active infections, cancer or severe heart disease may be eligible for kidney transplant after thorough evaluation.
Is kidney transplant better than long-term dialysis?
Yes. For most suitable patients, kidney transplant offers better survival, improved quality of life and fewer long-term complications compared to remaining on dialysis.
How long does a transplanted kidney last?
With good medication compliance and regular follow-up, a transplanted kidney can function well for many years. Outcomes depend on donor type, overall health and adherence to treatment.
Will I need medicines for life after kidney transplant?
Yes. Lifelong immunosuppressive medicines are required to prevent rejection of the transplanted kidney. Regular follow-up helps adjust medicines safely.
