Live Donor kidney Transplant – Laparoscopic Nephrectomy

There is an ever-increasing demand for living kidney donors.

The pre-transplant donor evaluation provides complete information about your overall health and helps to identify any potential problems.

There also will be several additional tests to make sure you are physically ready for the surgery......

The surgeon will insert a small needle into your abdominal cavity. The needle is connected to sterile tubing. Through the tubing, carbon dioxide is passed into the abdominal cavity to lift the abdominal wall away from the organs below. This space provides your surgeon with an excellent view and more operating space.......

Incision care

Your incisions will be covered with small pieces of tape (called steri-strips) that will gradually fall off on their own. If the strips do not fall off on their own, your health care provider will remove them at your 2-week follow-up appointment......

Follow-up appointment

A follow-up appointment will be scheduled about 2 weeks after your surgery. Your surgeon will assess the wound site and your recovery, and will provide further guidelines about your activity and diet at this time......
