Answers for Patients & Families

Frequently Asked Questions about Kidney Transplant

Who can be a kidney donor in India?

Under the Transplantation of Human Organs Act (THOA), near relatives (parents, siblings, children, spouse, grandparents, grandchildren) can donate after comprehensive medical and psychological evaluation confirming normal bilateral kidney function and zero risk to the donor.

How long does a transplanted kidney function?

With modern immunosuppressive medications and vigilant nephrology follow-up, living donor kidney transplants average 15 to 20+ years of healthy function, with many lasting even longer when managed proactively.

Can a kidney transplant be done with different blood groups?

Yes. With ABO-Incompatible (ABOi) transplantation protocols using plasmapheresis, immunoadsorption, and B-cell depleting therapies, successful kidney transplants are regularly performed across mismatched blood types.

What is the recovery timeline after kidney transplant?

Most recipients are discharged within 7 to 10 days. Normal light activities can be resumed in 3 to 4 weeks, with full return to work typically within 2 to 3 months while maintaining hygiene and medication adherence.
