A discussion in the surgical advancements in the field of renal transplant was organised at the Department of Urology and Renal Transplantion at Max Hospital, Saket. The conference — Max Transplant-Surgicon 2018  —focused on managing intra-operative complications by showcasing a live surgery.

The programme was designed for knowledge and experience sharing by various eminent speakers on the latest trends and treatment options for management of renal ailments.

New emerging modalities in renal transplant were discussed on transplant surgery in multiple vessels, organ distribution in deceased donor — legal issues, complication in cadaver transplant, understanding ABO incompatible renal transplant, role of newer immunosuppressants and operation in difficult access for AVF.

Live demonstration of laparoscopic donor nephrectomy and robotic kidney transplantation were the highlights.

“In the last few years, there have been advances in renal replacement and organ support in terms of innovation and technology. Robot-assisted renal transplantation has become useful as it results in quicker recovery, less pain and smaller scar with quicker healing. Unlike regular surgeries for kidney transplantation where the patient receives the kidney through a larger muscle cutting process, robotic surgery is conducted with only a small incision and involves no cutting of muscle. Blood loss during surgery and scope for human error are also minimised,” Dr Anant Kumar, chairman, Urology, Renal Transplant, Robotics and Uro-Oncology, Max Super Speciality Hospital, Saket, said.
