Centre Of Renal Science

Kidney Transplant/Renal Transplantation Centre in Pune

Overview

The kidneys' function is to filter the blood. All the blood in our body passes through the kidneys several times a day. The kidneys remove wastes, control the body's fluid balance, and regulate the balance of electrolytes. As the kidneys filter blood, they create urine, which collects in the kidneys' pelvis; funnel-shaped structures that drain down tubes called ureters to the bladder.

Each kidney contains around a million units called nephrons, each of which is a microscopic filter for blood. It's possible to lose as much as 90% of kidney function without experiencing any symptoms or problems.

Ascertaining that the Kidney is one of the most vital organs in the human body, a dedicated department has been set up to facilitate and treat any kind of Kidney Disorders. Some of the Kidney Conditions are:

  • Pyelonephritis
  • Glomerulonephritis
  • Kidney stones
  • Nephrotic syndrome
  • Polycystic kidney disease
  • Acute renal failure
  • Chronic renal failure
  • Diabetic nephropathy
  • Hypertensive nephropathy
  • Kidney cancer
  • Renal Cyst

Mostly it is seen that kidney failures account from neglect by the patient. It is suggested that you keep a regular record of health checkups on a monthly or a quarterly basis.

Jehangir Hospital provides a wide array of Kidney Treatments ranging between; prescribing simple Antibiotics, Lithotripsy to Peritoneal Dialysis and kidney transplant.

We specialize in offering services with personal care and focus on building long term relationships.

Living Kidney Donor

How do family and friends know when it is time to consider donation?
When a patient loses 90 to 95 percent of his or her kidney function, they are considered to have End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Treatment options for patients with ESRD are dialysis (where an artificial kidney machine removes waste from the blood) or a kidney transplant from a living or deceased donor.

Sometimes, a patient with 85 percent loss of kidney function will undergo a transplant which allows them to avoid having to go on dialysis. Kidney patients and their families will discuss the best course of treatment with their doctors.

Who can be a donor?
Donors need to be between the ages of 18 and early 60s and can include parents, Grandparents, siblings, Spouse, Children, Grandchildren. An ideal donor should have a genuine interest in donating. Compatible blood type is no more must for a donor. Donor should be in good general health. Typically, someone who has cancer, diabetes, kidney disease, heart disease, liver disease, sickle cell disease, HIV or hepatitis will not qualify to be a donor. However, these diseases are not all absolute contraindications to donation. Every donor will be considered on an individual basis.

Do some donors have trouble making the decision to donate?
The decision to donate can vary from person to person. Some people make the decision instantly with few worries or concerns. Other people require time to think critically and will talk with close friends or family before deciding whether or not to donate. It is normal for some people to be afraid of donating a kidney as well as to experience guilt about not wanting to be a donor.

Individuals should not, under any circumstances, feel pressured to donate. The only “right” decision is the one that makes the donor feel comfortable. Potential donors are encouraged to speak with the consultant, Transplant Coordinator living donor team if they have any questions or concerns about their decision.

What is the first step to becoming a living donor?
Donor’s health is prim important aspect in any kind of organ donation. Only after comprehensive health assessment of the donor he/ she will be considered fit to donate organ to his/her relative.

What does the donor evaluation include?
We encourage all donor evaluations to be completed at Jehangir Hospital, Pune. The work-up can often be completed in 1-2 days, though additional testing may be required in some cases.

You will complete a medical history and receive a physical, which includes a blood pressure check, to ensure that you don’t have any concerning health conditions. A series of laboratory and X-ray tests, as well as an EKG, will be completed to screen for kidney function, liver function, hepatitis, heart disease, lung disease and past exposure to viral illness. Urine testing will also be done to make sure that your kidneys function normally. In addition, results from your routine annual health maintenance tests (e.g., pap smear, mammogram, colonoscopy, etc).

A Computerized tomography or CTA) scan will also be completed. During this scan, contgiogram (a contrast is injected into the blood stream through a vein in your arm. The contrast travels to the kidneys and urinary tract while the CTA scan and X-rays are done. These tests help the transplant staff to determine if your urinary tract, kidneys, and the blood vessels leading to the kidneys are normal.

Once all results from the entire evaluation process are available, it will be determined by the independent physician whether you are able to safely proceed with the donation.

What are the health risks associated with being a donor?
Your Nephrologist and surgeon will discuss all health risks with you. The risks of donation are similar to those involved with any major surgery, such as bleeding and infection. Death resulting from kidney donation is extremely rare. Current research indicates that kidney donation does not change life expectancy or increase a person’s risks of developing kidney disease or other health problems.

Will giving a kidney affect my lifestyle?
A person can lead an active, normal life with only one kidney. Studies have shown that one fully functional kidney is sufficient to keep the body healthy. After recovering from surgery, a donor can work, drive, exercise and participate in sports, though contact sports are not recommended. A donor can continue in all types of occupations. Also, being a donor does not impact a person’s ability to have a child.

What Next:

Once the donor is finalized donor’s compatibility with the recipient will be assist through HLA typing. Patient will be guided to complete legal formalities. After completion of the legal formalities case will be evaluated by the Transplant authorization committee along with in Camera interview of donor recipient and the next of kens.

Deceased Kidney Donors

If you have no living donor available, you have an option of registering for Deceased donor kidney transplant. Regardless of your donor, you’ll still undergo the same thorough evaluation to determine whether you’re a candidate for transplant surgery. You cannot receive a kidney transplant before the completion of all tests and consultations recommended by the Doctor. Once you’re approved for transplant, you’ll be placed on the organ waiting list, at which point you begin to accrue waiting time.

While You Wait

The waiting period often is several months to years, so you may be asked to undergo periodic testing to remain “active” on the waiting list. You’ll continue to be cared for by your Nephrologist

Above all, because the waiting period can be extended, it’s important for you to let the Nephrologist know about any serious changes in your health. Keeping us updated improves the chances of a timely transplantation.

Testimonials

  • “Dear Dr Nina, I wish I could see you to thank you in person before getting discharged. I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to you for the exceptional care and support you have provided throughout my pregnancy and the delivery of our baby. Your kindness, patience, and reassuring presence made a world of difference during a time that was both exciting and challenging. You were really my last hope at getting pregnant and I thank God every day that He brought me to you. I was also very anxious when the baby was detected with FGR. But you put our minds at ease at every consult and I left the fate of the delivery process in your hands. I was never really fixated on a "Normal" delivery. I have heard many stories where the doctors scare the parents into C- sections. However the situation was strange in this case, where you still gave us a shot at a normal delivery and I have zero regrets that it ended in a surgical one at the last minute. I feel fortunate to have had you by my side during this incredible journey. Your professionalism and genuine concern for your patients are truly commendable. This gratitude note would be incomplete without the mention of some kind souls that helped throughout. 1. Rachita Duggal- her reassuring smile itself is enough to drive worries away! 2. Dr Ayesha- again a very calming presence and grateful to have had her in the OT! 3. Miss Vaikhare- extremely pleasant to talk to, the perfect person to run a department full of anxious moms to be/new moms. 3. Dr Saket, Dr Prakriti, Sister Sushmita, Sister Sayali and all the other nurses. 5. All the support staff and maushis. Wishing you continued success in your medical practice, and once again, thank you for being an integral part of this memorable chapter in my life.”

  • “We would like to thank Dr Jyotsna Angom and her team for the constant support throughout the pregnancy. Last 8 months was both physically and emotionally exhausting as it was a complicated one but she dealt it with it so well and was always available. Without her it would not have been possible to pull through. Heartfelt gratitude.”

  • “Aishwarya Jiman here. Our family has been blessed with our little princess on 23-Jul-2022 I would like to write a heartfelt thank you note to Dr.Nina and her team. Hello Dr. Nina Ma\\\'am.... Words are not enough to express the joy of delivering a baby with the support of your expertise and the commendable efforts of the entire Team of Jehangir Hospital... There was a point where I was about to give up hope and your words of determination to push myself to the finish line made our bundle of joy arrive with normal delivery... Jehangir facilities staff, Maternity Nursing staff, Dr. Sayali, Resident Dr. Prakhriti, Dr. Mehek Mukhi (making me understand to push with my mouth closed and not scream cuz that would drain out all the energy), the entire team was alert and hands on during the entire birthing process. Our first prenatal workshop U and Me Baby was an experience that we will always cherish. The breathing techniques demoed in the session were the most helpful during the birthing process. 100 sqauts > castor oil. + Milk .. all made the trick for a challenging yet smooth delivery. You were always determined to ensure I had a normal delivery despite being a diabetic. All the tests were performed at the right time during the pregnancy cycle.. Dr. Saket was always prompt to answer any doubts we had.. Dr. Sarita K made sure my sugar levels were under control with the insulin dosage though I was very tensed if high insulin dosage could have any effects.. Overall.. the comfort level that Dr.Nina Ma\\\'am has with her patients ..being clear and vocal ..shows how much of an expert she is in her profession that is her passion for a lifetime.. I remember she said during my delivery in the labor room.. OBGYN is something that I can\\\'t live without..🙂 (Ma\\\'am - I could catch only some of those words . Thank you for all your efforts and dedication. And yes..do follow Ma\\\'am on Instagram for all the helpful tips and facts about OBGYN and salad dressings too..”

My grandmother is facing spine pain, she is having cramp since 4 years from CGHS we came to know about jehangir hospital and Mr. Sanjay Gandhi Sir. My family was scared about spine operation.

  • “I, the undersigned here Mohammed Ali Al Badri, the vice president of Supreme Court in Republic of Yemen, have the honour to submit herewith my sworn declaration that I accompanied my wife Safia Mohammed Qadri from Yemen to India as a patient after 2 years of suffering, motionless in her room, can not walk more than 10 meters.l presented her to all specialists available in Sanaa, Yemen but of no use. So we. reached Pune. And due to her good luck,I exposed her to hounarable Dr.Sandeep Borse in Jehangir hospital, in view of advice given by one surgent in Pune to do nails in her lower spine. But when she was examined by Dr.Sandeep he refused that view and said: No need of surgery, I will prescribe a medicine for her that will enable her to walk again, I was astonished. I couldn\'t believe what I have heard, just after 4 days of using that medicine, she felt that the ropes tighten her body started to untightened, and with a help of physiotherapy exercises, she was able to walk independently for long distances gradually. However, I hereby express my family\'s gratitude for DR.SANDEEP BORSE, the statue and pillar of medicine in Pune, who deserves all thanks for his efforts In relief ing human suffering. Alongside him, there are others who deserve the same gratitude. This is a real witness under my oath, and according to the best of my belief.”
