Transplants
Liver Transplant
Apollo`s comprehensive liver transplant care programme aims to provide effective health care by connecting to people dealing with liver disease. A successful liver transplant, ably supplemented by Apollo`s care and commitment affords a fresh lease of life and puts the smile back on your face as you return to normalcy.
Kidney Transplant
Both autologous and cadaveric transplants are performed at The Centers of Nephrology and Urology , which has a large and comprehensive renal transplant program. We also created the first organ transplant registry in our country. A lot of our transplant surgeries are done using minimally invasive techniques for the kidney donors , thus minimising recovery time after surgery and hospitalisation.
Heart Transplant
A formal Heart Transplant Programme was started in Apollo Hospitals in 2004. Along with this, a multidisciplinary approach to End Stage Heart Failure was also conceptualised.
So far, Apollo Hospitals, Bhubaneswar has successfully performed over 32 Heart transplants, 25 Lung transplants, 7 Heart and Double Lung transplants and 1 Heart Lung and Kidney transplantation. Awareness among donors has exponentially increased in the recent years and we are proud to say that the State of Tamil Nadu has an excellent and one of the most active Government led Cadaver Programmes in India.
Pancreatic Transplant and Surgery
Most surgical procedures performed on the pancreas involve resection (removal) of the diseased part of the organ. Before the surgery on the pancreas, the patient is completely evaluated by the multidisciplinary team of doctors.
Bone Marrow Transplant
More than 750 transplants have been performed at the blood and bone marrow transplantation center at Apollo Specialty Cancer Hospitals, Bhubaneswar, all with extremely good outcomes. We are also a centre of choice for BMT among the international patients, thanks to the team of well trained BMT specialists, the strict infection control norms which are crucial for BMT patients and the warm and friendly ambience.
Lung Transplant
A lung transplant can benefit patients who are suffering from chronic respiratory disease which has compromised the functioning of the lung, severely. The transplant would give the patient a new lease of life and increase longevity. Apollo Hospitals, Bhubaneswar is equipped with the state of the art technology, infrastructure and medical expertise to handle patients requiring this complex procedure. With utmost experience in lung transplants, our team has developed a program especially in evaluation of donors with respect to latent TB which helps patients suffering from severe end stage lung disease.
