A kidney transplant or transplantation is a treatment for people who have kidneys that have failed. If your kidneys fail, then your body has no way to rid your system of dangerous toxins to keep you healthy and safe. Some people who have failed kidneys will go onto dialysis, in an effort to continue their lives with a machine, such as a dialysis machine doing the work that their failed kidneys are unable to do.
People are able to go onto a national list, if they are eligible, to receive a healthy kidney. These individuals get a kidney from donors who have died in accidents and who have viable kidneys, or get a kidney from a close relative or match from someone who is willing to donate a kidney to help keep someone alive. People think that there are no miracles in the world, but getting a kidney when you need one is as close to a miracle as a person can get.
After the kidney is transplanted into your body, there are many issues that will arise regarding the kidney transplant. Once a person receives a new kidney, it is actually the beginning of the journey, not the end. There are many problems, issues, concerns, complications and other contra-actions that can occur once a new kidney is transplanted. The new kidney needs special care, to prevent it from being rejected by the recipient’s body. But the complications are always around the corner, with gastrointestinal complications being high on the list of issues following the kidney transplant surgery.
What Can Go Wrong with a Kidney Transplant?
If a person develops complications from the receiving of a new kidney, then there may have been medical malpractice involved in the procedure. There can be many issues and medical problems that can arise after a kidney transplant for the recipient, including:
- Delayed graft function
- Urinary tract infections
- Polyomavirus infection
- Urological complications
- Ureteral stenosis
- Urinary fistula
