SURGERY FOR KIDNEY TRANSPLANTS AND AV FISTULAS

Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) require renal replacement therapy (RRT) in the form of hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and kidney transplant.

AV Fistula :

A small communication is made between an artery and vein in the form under local anesthesia. The patient is discharged the same day or next day. The fistula matures after 4 to 6 weeks in order to provide dialysis access through the vein.

Kidney Transplant :

Patients who are suitable for the procedure and who agree to have a kidney transplant can receive one. Our nephrologists, who have extensive experience in renal transplants, provide whole donor and recipient work ups, management before and after surgery. Kidney transplant is a major process which requires extensive legal formalities and medical evaluations before being operated on. Usually, donors can go home between three to five days post-op whilst recipients usually stay between ten to fourteen days. After a transplant, patients need to take immunosuppressant drugs for life.
