A miraculous medical procedure that grants a second chance at life through the gift of healthy organs.
Transplantation is the surgical procedure of replacing a failing or non-functional organ with a healthy one from a living or deceased donor. This is a purely voluntary medical practice. Any individual over the age of 18 who is of sound mind can become a donor.
Organ transplants are performed using organs from either living donors (typically relatives up to the 4th degree) or cadaveric donors (individuals who have passed away and whose organs were donated).
The most commonly transplanted organs today include the kidneys, lungs, heart, liver, and pancreas.
Tissues like bones, tendons, and ligaments restore mobility after trauma or cancer. Cornea transplants restore vision, while skin grafts are essential for healing severe burns.
Valves can be transplanted to patients with congenital defects or those who suffered later damage.
Liver transplant is the only definitive treatment for acute liver failure, irreversible liver disease, and liver-based cancers. Timing is critical: transplants performed before the patient’s condition deteriorates have a success rate of over 80%.
Note: Post-transplant, patients must use immunosuppressant medications for life to prevent the body from rejecting the new organ.
Occurs when families donate the organs of a brain-dead individual. The donor must be free of infectious diseases or cancer. The liver is preserved in special fluid and must be transplanted within 24 hours.
Performed by taking a portion of the liver from a healthy donor (relative up to 4th degree or qualified volunteer). Extensive testing ensures the donor’s vascular and bile anatomy are suitable.
Kidney failure occurs when the kidneys can no longer filter waste products from the blood, leading to a toxic buildup of urea and uric acid.
While dialysis keeps a patient alive, it cannot replicate all the functions of a natural organ. Kidney transplantation offers a significantly longer life expectancy and a much higher quality of life. Like liver transplants, patients will require life-long medication to maintain the organ’s health.
Utilizes organs from brain-dead donors with family consent. Speed is vital; the kidney must be transplanted into the recipient within 24 hours while kept in protective solutions.
Donors are typically relatives or volunteers with matching blood and tissue types. For the donor, living with one kidney does not impact life expectancy or quality of life in the long term.
Thousands of patients wait for a transplant to return to their daily lives. Organ donation is a miraculous treatment that extends life and restores health. Your decision today can be someone else’s tomorrow.
