Kidney Transplantation Center

We are proud to express that we have performed more than 1100 kidney transplantation without any serious health problems at Group Florence Nightingale Hospitals Kidney Transplantation Center.

To have transplantation in Turkey, patients from overseas should have donors up to 4th degree of kinship (Note that spouses are considered to be legal close relatives).

Our Kidney Transplant Center assumes a pioneering role in both pediatric and adult kidney transplants by performing:

Regular transplant (open surgery),
Laparoscopic or robotic kidney transplant (closed surgery),
Kidney transplant under challenging conditions such as cross transplantation, and blood group (ABO) incompatibility.

97.4% of them experience stable good health within the first year of transplantation.
The success of our kidney transplant team is the same as leading centers in the USA and Europe.

Fundamentals of Group Florence Nightingale Kidney Transplantation Center

Preventing growth retardation and bone diseases by timely intervention with kidney transplantation in children.
Thanks to our cross transplantation program to create the chance of transplantation for patients that can receive kidneys from rare people due to blood group in compliance or high antigenic structure.
Ensuring safe kidney donation by performing an advanced surgical technique under the camera to people to donate their kidney to their relatives (retroperitoneoscopic technique).
Ensuring healthy work of the kidney for many years with follow-up program after kidney transplantation. Also, follow-up of the people giving their kidneys (donors).
We collaborate with highly qualified staff from different medical disciplines for the well-being of our patients and donors after transplantation and during follow-up.
We perform a detailed examination before transplantation so that we can estimate possible immune system reactions after the procedure.

Follow-up after the Kidney Transplant

For successful evaluation of the kidney transplant, follow-up after the kidney transplant as well as the operation period is very important.

At our Kidney Transplant Center, all our patients are followed up closely and regularly to ensure the healthy functioning of the transplanted kidney.

Cornerstones of the calendar after transplant:

Patients who have received kidneys are discharged after an average of six days.
Detailed information on the medication and issues requiring special attention in their new life is given 2 days prior to discharge.
The patient leaves the hospital with a medication chart and a phone number that can be reached 24 hours a day.
Patients are asked to visit the hospital twice a week to give blood for tests.
Patients living in distant places may have their blood tests carried out in the regions where they live and sent by mail service without any charges.
These blood tests are repeated once a week in the second month and once in the sixth month.
Our patients are regularly asked to visit a Nephrologist.
We also regularly follow our donors who have given the gift of life to their relatives. Kidney donors can return to their homes within an average of 3 days after the operation.
They are invited to the hospital for re-examination a week after they return home.
They come for examinations six months
Then they are asked to visit the hospital once a year for examination.
