Some facts about kidney transplantation
by manish kalia on Jan 30, 2008 05:04 PM

I am shocked to read some comments on this article. Please know some facts about kidney transplantation laws & medical attention required after & before the surgery
1. One can survive and have healthy and active life even after donating one kidney.
2. Indian law permits, donation from close relative like spouse/parents/siblings only. even if anyone of close relative agree to donate his/her kidney to patients, the documents need to sign by district CMO, SP, DC state Cheif sectary etc. and above all patient has to prove the blood relation by BLOOD MAPPING test which costs somewhat about Rs.30,000/-
3. Before surgery, a lot of tests are required to minimum the rejection of donated kidney by recipient.
So if someone say if found his/her kidney found missing when he woke-up is simply lie.
