How is transplant done?
Based on the source of donated kidney, kidney transplant can be classified as deceased donor or living donor transplant. Answer: To the question of HOW a kidney transplant is done. The donor kidney will be extracted including part of the urinary tract and vein/arteries. The blood is extracted from the kidney and it is flushed clean. Then transported on ice to where the recipient is. The donor kidney is transplanted into the person in their lower abdomen. They join the veins/artery etc to the recipients, having disconnected them from the existing bad kidney. They do not take out the recipients bad kidneys (unless it has tumour) but leaves them there, as no point in performing unnecessary surgery.

Why do our kidneys have a higher blood flow than the brain?
The kidneys have a higher blood flow than the brain because their main function is to filter blood and remove waste products from the body.

Why is kidneytransplant done?
Kidney transplants are performed when both of a person's kidneys no longer function (kidney failure) and the kidneys will not ever function again, this condition can be due to injury or disease. There is generally a waiting list for kidney transplants that patients will need to register for to wait for an appropriate donor. Usually patients will be on some form of dialysis until they receive the kidney transplant, and once the transplant is received the patient will need to continue on immunosuppressant drug therapy for the rest of their life to avoid their body rejecting the transplanted kidney.
