With any surgery, there is always a chance for infection and bad reactions to anesthesia medication/other medications. So, yes, you can die if you are donating a kidney, but you can die in ANY surgery!
With that said, doctors are very good at kidney transplants, and the vast majority of patients survive the procedure.
Yes, toxins in the kidneys can lead to brain issues, particularly through a condition known as uremic encephalopathy. When the kidneys fail to filter waste products effectively, toxins accumulate in the bloodstream, which can affect brain function. This may result in symptoms such as confusion, altered consciousness, and cognitive impairment. Additionally, kidney dysfunction can lead to electrolyte imbalances that also impact neurological health.
Urine is excreted from the kidneys.

Renal failure,
The 2 kidneys filter the blood & create urine, which is passed on to the Bladder, so the body can get rid of waste & toxins. When they fail, the blood doesn't get cleaned & the system becomes toxic & your other organs fail and you die.
You would probably be placed on dialysis to help with blood filtration.
Kidney failure is fatal because the kidneys play a crucial role in filtering waste products and excess fluids from the blood. When the kidneys fail, toxins can accumulate in the body leading to a range of complications such as electrolyte imbalances, fluid overload, and cardiovascular issues, ultimately resulting in organ failure and death if not treated promptly.
You can only die if both are not working BUT if one of the kidneys still work then you wont die.
Did you mean organs? All of them. If you lose your kidneys, you die.
