Panchkula Sept.24, 2024:--
Alchemist Hospital Panchkula, announced a groundbreaking achievement that strengthens its position, not just as Haryana's leading Kidney transplant centre rather one of the pioneers in entire Northern India as far as care of kidney patients is concerned.
After performing nearly 350 successful kidney transplants in a short span of time, hospital's Kidney Transplant Program has become the first in the North Haryana to start ABO Incompatible (ABOi) kidney transplants, this marks a landmark accomplishment that underscores its commitment to pioneer cutting-edge technologies and advanced medical techniques.
Dr Neeraj Goyal, Associate Director of Urology and Chief Kidney Transplant Surgeon at Alchemist Panchkula, highlighted that successful ABO Incompatible Kidney Transplants are a milestone achievement for us that underscores the continued efforts and relentless dedication of our team. We are aimed to provide best possible care to the patients suffering from this deadly disease of kidney failure.
Dr Neeraj further elaborated that an ABO incompatible transplant is a complex procedure where the donor and recipient have different blood groups. There are certain pre-existing antibodies due to this difference of blood groups that presents as a natural barrier between them. This poses a significant challenge due to potential immune reactions that can lead to rapid rejection and failure of the transplanted organ. Unlike standard kidney transplants with same or compatible blood groups, ABO incompatible transplants require advanced pre-transplant treatments such as plasmapheresis and intensive immunosuppressive therapies, to remove these pre-existing antibodies and desensitize the patient's immune system. The meticulous post-transplant monitoring and intensive care make these procedures particularly demanding.
Addition of this facility, will provide a new lease of life to the patients, not having a blood group compatible donor in family. Our focus on leveraging the latest technologies and techniques ensures that the patients receive the best possible outcomes, and this milestone reflects our unwavering commitment to excellence.
Dr Neeraj Goyal, further emphasized the broader impact of this milestone: This achievement places our hospital and our city at the forefront of Kidney Transplant not just in Haryana, but across whole of North India. Our team's ability to successfully execute ABO Incompatible Kidney Transplant program is a clear indication of our commitment towards patient care. Till now kidney patients, not having same blood group donor in family, either were devoid of this facility or had to visit larger Metro cities for this facility.
Dr Ramesh Kumar and Dr Charanjit Lal, both Senior Consultant Nephrologists at Alchemist Hospital, further highlighted the hospital's role as a pioneer in kidney care. Being recognized as the leading Kidney Transplant Centre of Haryana, it is our responsibility to cater to each and every needful patient suffering from kidney failure. Dr Sumita Bhogal, Consultant Nephrologist said: "Our mission is to lead by example, bringing the latest advancements in transplant medicine to patients and setting new standards for care. I am deeply proud of the extraordinary work of our team lead by Dr Neeraj Goyal. This milestone is not just a testament to the skill and dedication but also a reflection of our commitment to delivering transformative healthcare.
Jitender Singh Gill, a resident of Rohtak was present at the event who explained transformation of his life after a successful ABO incompatible Kidney transplant. He was suffering from Kidney failure at a young age and narrated his ordeal of being on dialysis, as he had no donor in family with a matching blood group. However, after a successful ABOi transplant, his life completely transformed and he was delighted to share his happiness and gratitude. Another patient, Sh Surinder Kumar, from Yamunanagar also explained his experience of successful ABOi kidney transplant. Not having a same blood group donor in family, he was on regular dialysis for long time that led to continuous deterioration of his health. However, an ABOi transplant completely changed his life to normal. He defied all the myths and misconceptions, surrounding the process and success of ABOi Kidney transplants.
Dr Neeraj Goyal re-emphasized the ever-improving outcomes of ABOi kidney transplants, that can give a new lease of life to patients who don't have a donor with matching blood groups. He highlighted that with meticulous surgical skills and improving specialized care, ABO incompatible transplants are able to give good results that may be at par with same blood group transplants. He also highlighted the critical role of intraoperative management in ensuring the success of complex transplant surgeries by expert transplant anesthesiologists and the dedicated blood bank team under leadership of Dr GP Saluja, Senior Consultant and Incharge of Blood Bank.
