Research Notes on Longevity of Kidney Transplant
A kidney transplant is a surgical procedure in which the doctor removes the kidney of a patient with end-stage kidney disease, and replaces it with a healthy donor organ. The five-year survival rate of people who undergo kidney transplant is between 80 and 90%. Living donor transplants using a kidney from a first-degree relative, such as the father, mother, brother, or sister, are the most successful.
