Comprehensive Care & Management

Kidney transplantation is universally recognized as the gold standard treatment for eligible patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Compared with long-term maintenance dialysis, a successful kidney transplant delivers significantly superior survival, better cardiovascular outcomes, and a complete return to an active, normal lifestyle without machine dependence.

Dr. Vishal Singh is one of North India's most accomplished transplant nephrologists, with over 1,000 kidney transplants to his credit. He leads advanced transplant protocols at Max Super Specialty Hospital, Vaishali, including complex ABO-incompatible (cross-blood group) transplants, highly sensitized recipients (high PRA / crossmatch positive), paediatric transplants, and deceased donor allocations.

What We Treat
  • End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD / Stage 5 CKD)
  • Living Related & Unrelated Donor Transplants
  • ABO-Incompatible (ABOi) Cross-Match Transplants
  • Sensitized Hosts (High PRA / Luminex positive)
  • Paediatric Kidney Failure & Transplantation
  • Deceased (Cadaveric) Donor Transplants
  • Acute & Chronic Allograft Rejection Management
Who Should Consult Us
  • Patients on maintenance haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis
  • Individuals with Stage 5 CKD approaching dialysis (pre-emptive)
  • Patients with blood group mismatched willing donors (ABOi candidates)
  • Patients experiencing severe dialysis complications or fistula failures
  • Individuals seeking second opinions on transplant candidacy or rejection

How We Care For You

A structured, compassionate approach from initial consultation through diagnosis, specialized therapy, and long-term surveillance.

01
Pre-Transplant Evaluation
Comprehensive medical, cardiovascular, immunological, and anatomical screening of recipient and prospective donor.
02
Immunological Optimization
HLA typing, Luminex single-antigen crossmatching, and desensitization protocols (plasmapheresis/IVIg for ABOi).
03
Surgical Transplantation
State-of-the-art surgical placement of the allograft paired with tailored modern induction immunosuppression.
04
Lifelong Graft Surveillance
Meticulous outpatient monitoring of calcineurin inhibitor drug levels (Tacrolimus), eGFR, viral screening (CMV/BKV), and biopsy.

Conditions We Manage

Frequently Asked Questions

Get clear, medically verified answers about diagnosis, treatment options, and disease progression.

What is an ABO-Incompatible Kidney Transplant?
+
An ABO-incompatible transplant allows a patient to receive a kidney from a living donor with a different blood group (e.g., A donor to O recipient). By using plasmapheresis (plasma exchange) and targeted medications before surgery, anti-blood group antibodies are safely removed.
How long does a transplanted kidney last?
+
A living donor kidney graft lasts an average of 15–20+ years, and many last 25–30+ years with strict adherence to immunosuppressive medications, blood pressure control, and regular nephrology follow-up.
What are the risks of kidney transplantation?
+
The main risks include surgical complications, graft rejection, and side effects from lifelong immunosuppressive medications (such as susceptibility to infections). Under experienced care, these risks are minimized through systematic monitoring.
Can someone with diabetes get a kidney transplant?
+
Yes. Diabetic kidney disease is one of the most common reasons for kidney transplantation. A thorough cardiovascular evaluation is performed beforehand to ensure safety.
