What is Pancreas Transplant?
Pancreas transplant — performed alone or together with a kidney transplant (SPK) for patients with type 1 diabetes and kidney failure — is a major, highly specialised procedure requiring extensive donor matching, transplant surgery and long-term immunosuppression. It is one of the longest-stay procedures in this specialty.
Who may be considered?
Pancreas Transplant may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.
How does it work?
Surgical placement of a donor pancreas (and, for SPK, a donor kidney), following extensive tissue-matching and pre-transplant clearance.
Pancreas Transplant (with or without Kidney)
Surgical placement of a donor pancreas (and, for SPK, a donor kidney), following extensive tissue-matching and pre-transplant clearance.
Comprehensive Investigations
CBC, LFT, KFT, HbA1c, C-peptide, tissue typing / HLA matching, cardiac evaluation, viral serology, CT angiography, dental and psychological clearance.
