Department Achievements
This year saw the completing more than 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 the department also has started receiving kidneys from outstation (Lucknow). Even after prolonged hours of ischemia, we could achieve a successful outcome comparable to in-house retrievals. The ILBS urology students have been selected for prestigious MCh Urology programmes at various National Institutes.
