Renal Transplant And Urology
The department came into existence in June 2012. In a short period of 4.5 years, it has become the “FIRST and the only department in a Delhi Government hospital” to offer treatment for all urological ailments using “state of the art cutting edge technology”. The technology and expertise, to treat urological problems, that we offer, match the best available in any government and private sector hospitals in India that too at very affordable rates with short waiting lists.
The department is expanding both in technology/expertise and manpower, with induction of new faculty/senior residents and procurement of latest equipments like flexible ureterosopce, lasers and urodynamics laboratory. On academic front, it aims to start post-doctoral courses in Renal Transplant and Urology soon.

Department Achievements
This year saw the department completing 100 successful kidney transplants. The new developments in the department include starting of ABOi kidney transplants. This is an important boon for the patients who do not have blood group compatible donors in their families. The success of transplants across the blood group barrier in a government set-up is a ray of hope for middle class Indian families, as this procedure is very expensive in private hospitals. Further, in 2016 the department also received its first kidney from outstation (Lucknow). Even after 18 hours of ischemia, we could achieve a successful outcome comparable to in-house retrievals. The ILBS urology students were selected for prestigious MCh Urology programmes at various National Institutes.
