When you get a kidney transplant, a healthy kidney is placed inside your body to do the work your own kidneys can no longer do.? Transplant kidneys may come from a living donor or from a person who has given a kidney after their death.
What is a Kidney Transplant ?
A successful kidney transplant is the most effective treatment for a person with little or no kidney function. A transplanted kidney can do all the work needed to give you a normal and healthy life. UK Guidelines recommend that a Kidney transplant should be the renal replacement therapy of choice.
