What are Organ Transplant Donor Requirements in Turkey?
Stevebowling11
Organ transplant is one of the most interesting parts of medicine. It's actually replacing an organ when it can no longer perform its functions properly (due to disease or trauma) or even become dangerous for the body, with a healthy organ. A transplant involves two key persons: the receiver and the donor.
According to the Turkish Health Ministry, international patients can have organ transplants as long as they come in Turkey together with their donor.
The donor has to be at least 18 years old, mentally balanced, related to the recipient (up to forth degree: mother, father, child, grandfather, grandmother, grandchild, sibling, maternal or paternal aunt, uncle, cousin, children of third degree relatives), or his or her spouse.
When arriving to the clinic, if the donor is the recipient's relative, all the donor's necessary documents (notarized) should be provided. If the recipient has no relative, he/she can bring a friend as a donor; in this case, both the recipient and the donor should provide their passports.
Also, the donor shouldn't have medical conditions and shouldn't be overweight. The patient and the donor have to be compatible (blood groups).

What is a living donor?
When an organ transplant is required organs can be sourced from cadavers (dead donors) or from living donors. Living organ donation OS possible because some organs are duplicated in the body (e.g. kidneys) and one of the two can be removed for transplant, and other organs (e.g. the liver) are able to regenerate in the donors body after a portion is removed for transplant. Being a living donor is not a matter to be taken lightly as surgical complications can lead to the death of the donor. In addition, in the case of the removal of a paired organ, the donor foreits his spare organ which might be required later in life. In either case the transplant does not ensure the recovery of the recipient.
