Degeneration of our bodily organs is something that happens naturally with time; can happen due to ageing, different types of diseases, or can be due to genetics as well. While all other parts and organs of our body might function smoothly, these causes can strike and damage a particular organ. However, the amount of discomfort and challenge a patient might face, depends on the organ that has suffered the damage. Organ Transplant becomes necessary, when a particular organ faces damage that has led to organ failure.
As the number of patients needing and undergoing Organ Transplant is going up with passing time, it has today considered a very safe and sought-after surgical solution for those, who previously didn’t have much hope or scope of getting cured after suffering an organ failure. Usually, the type of transplants that are done in India, include:
- Liver Transplant
- Heart Transplant
- Bone Marrow Transplant
- Kidney Transplant
- Corneal Transplant
- Lung Transplant
- Trachea Transplant
- Pancreas Transplant
- Small Bowel Transplant
- Tissue Transplants such as Skin, Bone and Heart Valves
Organ Transplant being such a challenging surgery, it only needs highly specialized surgical equipment, but also exceptionally skilled surgical hands. India is an enormously blessed destination in this matter as the hospitals here have extremely matured Organ Transplant departments and also some very coveted names in this field are from India.

The cost factor can be a major hindrance because of which there are many who are unable to access this miraculous treatment method. This is because simply the availability of a particular treatment is not enough, it has to be affordable too. But this is not the case. The under-privilege countries do not have such advanced treatment methods available and the developed countries although have it but the cost is skyrocketing. So, the residents of developed countries as well as the underprivileged, both are unable to avail Organ Transplant. But with Organ Transplant in India, both these segments of patients can get this excellent surgical solution, without having to shell out too much from their pockets. So, for Kidney Transplant surgery, patients have to pay about $62,000 in USA, $70,000 in UK while in India, it is possible at only $12,000. Even Heart Transplant procedure can be availed at $30,000 in India, whereas in USA and UK, it costs $1,30,000 and $1,39,000, respectively.
