Department Of Organ Transplant

We at Sahyadri Hospitals offer four different types of organ transplants. These include –

• Liver transplant

Numerous causes can lead to the requirement of a liver transplant. The most common reasons include chronic hepatitis C, chronic hepatitis B, cirrhosis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, autoimmune conditions, metabolic disorders, etc. There are two distinct possibilities for a liver transplant.  

The first scenario involves removing a tiny portion of a healthy liver from the living donor and placing it inside the recipient. In these cases, the donors are usually family members. Another possibility is a full liver transplant from a dead donor. Here, compatibility is a big issue. However, the success rate of liver transplants is considerably high at Sahyadri Hospitals.

• Intestine transplant

The digestive tract, or the intestine, is one of the most vital organs of the human body. It is directly involved with digestion and offers the body essential elements like carbohydrates, vitamins, etc. However, various reasons can lead to intestinal failure. In Intestine transplantation, a healthy intestine from the deceased donor is placed into the recipient to replace the diseased one.

It is vital to remember that intestinal transplant is an extensively intricate procedure. With our expert transplant team of medical professionals and consultants, we offer top-quality transplantations and aftercare.

• Kidney transplant

Different renal diseases can cause extensive damage to one or both kidneys. Now, there are two possible treatment options – dialysis and kidney transplants. However, when dialysis is not an option anymore, doctors suggest a kidney transplant as the last option.  

Depending on the severity of the condition, the healthcare professionals suggest one or both kidney transplantations. In the case of the need for both kidneys transplants, the kidneys are taken from the body of the deceased donor and placed on the recipient’s body. However, in the case of one kidney transplantation, both the recipient and the donor are placed under specialized care. It ensures that further complications do not occur for both patients.  

Certain guidelines prohibit specific people from donating kidneys. The best chance of having a successful kidney transplant is when the patient can get a compatible one from a relative (living). Here, at Sahyadri Hospitals, we offer world-class aftercare.

• Heart transplant

The heart is one of the most crucial organs in the human body. Reduced functioning or total stoppage can lead to fatal consequences. In the case of a heart transplant, the donor is usually brain dead, either from an accident or any other reason. The heart is carefully removed from the donor and then placed into the recipient’s body to replace the damaged or faulty heart. It offers the patients a new chance at life and extends their lifespan considerably. 

However, strict guidelines are imposed as the procedure is very critical. At Sahyadri Hospitals, our team of skilled organ transplant surgeons and staff is dedicated and works endlessly to conduct successful transplantation.

At Sahyadri Hospitals, the medical professionals are much more aware of the intricate procedures and can help you get on the waiting list. For this, our doctor contacts the medical board. Afterward, the board sends a team of medical professionals to evaluate the patient and certify them eligible for the specific organ transplant. This ensures their entry into the waiting list.

The list is constantly updated and immediately alerts us at the earliest possible opportunity for the transplantation. In most cases, the donor is deceased and has pledged to donate his organs to the National Organ and Tissue Transplant Organization (NOTTO).

However, receiving an organ from a healthy relative is much less complicated and time-saving. For starters, you can bypass the long list. And secondly, there is a considerably low chance of organ rejection.

We have accomplished remarkable milestones, including over 300+ liver transplants. Additionally, our kidney, heart, and intestine transplant programs have experienced significant growth over time. This rapid expansion has established us as a leading destination for organ transplantation in Maharashtra.

Recognized as pioneers in organ transplantation in India, Sahyadri Hospitals continues to set ambitious goals for the future. Our recent achievement includes successfully conducting one of India’s largest Bone Marrow transplantation (BMT) programs. We are thrilled to announce that we have reached a significant milestone by completing our 600th BMT, further solidifying our reputation for excellence in the field of transplant medicine.

Our success is made possible by the expertise and dedication of our team, which includes skilled surgeons, transplant anaesthetists, nutritionists, critical care physicians, counsellors, and other professionals. Together, they deliver top-notch care and support throughout the transplant journey.
