Why is an Organ Transplant needed?
- Genetic conditions: There are several organ defects genetically that can require an organ transplant. For instance, if you have a congenital heart defect, transplantation is a must. In the case of cystic fibrosis or polycystic kidney disease, an organ transplant is vital.
- Physical injuries: Sometimes, massive physical injuries to the vital organs can lead to severe damage. It can ultimately compel the doctor to opt for organ transplantation.
- Chronic illness: Acquired or chronic medical conditions like diabetes can also lead to the requirement of an organ transplant.
- Infections: Severe infections, including hepatitis, may require urgent organ transplantation.
- Organ failure: Often, the last step that doctors take after using different medications and surgery is an organ transplant. It is usually the choice when there is a risk of organ failure.
Types of Transplants
It is true that the medical branch of organ transplants has come a long way in the last several years. The emergence of cutting-edge technology and modern devices has allowed medical professionals to conduct successful organ transplantations.
We at Sahyadri Hospitals offer four different types of organ transplants. These include –
- Liver transplant
There are numerous causes that 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. In a liver transplant, there are two distinct possibilities.
The first scenario is that a tiny portion of a healthy liver is taken out from the living donor and then placed inside the recipient. In these cases, the donors are usually family members. Now, another possibility is the full liver transplant from a dead donor. Here, compatibility is a big issue. But, 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
There are different renal diseases that 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 both kidneys transplant, 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 is to ensure that further complications do not occur on both the patients.
There are certain guidelines that prohibit specific people from donating kidneys. The best chance of having a successful kidney transplant is where 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 taken out 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.
Process for an Organ Transplant
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. After that, 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 at the National Organ and Tissue Transplant Organization (NOTTO).
However, receiving an organ from a healthy relative is a much less-complicated and time-saving process. For starters, you can bypass the long list. And secondly, there is a considerably low chance of organ rejection.
