A live related kidney transplant offers a chance for chronic kidney disease patients to regain function and improve their lives. In this procedure, a healthy kidney from a compatible living donor is transplanted into the recipient. Compared to deceased donor transplants, live related ones offer shorter waiting times and potentially better organ function. The surgery itself employs advanced techniques to minimize invasiveness. Robotic-assisted laparoscopy is often used for improved precision and faster recovery. Key procedures include: Pre-operative: HLA typing to ensure compatibility, blood tests to assess health, and crossmatch testing to minimize rejection risks. Surgical: Minimally invasive robotic surgery (or open laparoscopy if needed), ureteral work, kidney perfusion to preserve the donor kidney, recipient site preparation, and finally, the delicate connection of blood vessels and the ureter between the donor and recipient kidneys.
