  • cadaveric donor transplant
  • liver-kidney complex transplantation
  • split liver transplant.

 

Kidney transplant

The transplant is performed in severe stages of chronic kidney disease, in case of kidney cancer, and malignant hyperthermia (excessive temperature rise).

Doctors of the Department have over 15 years of experience in the kidney transplant. They performed over 900 successful surgeries.
