In the hands of experts and depending on the condition of the patient, Kidney Transplant really works. A kidney transplant involves surgically placing a healthy kidney from a donor into a person with renal failure. The advantages are that this procedure can provide a more permanent solution and patients can live a more normal life without the restrictions associated with dialysis.
On the other hand, the procedure requires a compatible donor, which can take time. Also, lifelong use of immunosuppressive drugs is necessary to prevent rejection while surgery carries risks, including infection and rejection of the donor kidney.
