How to Select the Best Hospital for Bilateral Hand Transplant in Bengaluru, India?
Choosing the right hospital for bilateral hand transplant is one of the most important decisions in your treatment journey. A few factors are worth weighing before you decide:
International Accreditation
Look for a hospital with international accreditation such as JCI or NABH — see the accreditation badges shown for each hospital below.
Specialization
Check that the hospital's listed specialties actually include transplant rather than only general care.
Capacity and Track Record
Bed count and year established (shown below for each hospital) are a reasonable proxy for scale and operating experience.
Transparent Costs
Ask for an itemised, all-inclusive estimate — hospital charges, room category and stay — before you travel. Our cost calculator (linked below) gives a starting estimate.
Understanding Bilateral Hand Transplant
Bilateral Hand Transplant, formally classified as Composite Tissue Allotransplantation (CTA) of the upper extremity, is one of the most complex reconstructive surgeries in modern medicine, requiring simultaneous restoration of bone, tendon, nerve, vessel, and skin across both limbs under a single anesthetic event often lasting 12–16 hours.
Clinical Overview
- Bilateral hand transplantation addresses traumatic or congenital bilateral upper-limb amputations at the wrist, transcarpal, or distal forearm level.
- Unlike solid organ transplants, CTA involves the transfer of a vascularized composite allograft (VCA) — a unit containing skin, subcutaneous tissue, fascia, muscle, tendon, nerve, bone, and cartilage — from a brain-dead, heart-beating deceased donor whose ABO blood group and HLA profile are matched to the recipient.
- The physiological consequence of bilateral hand loss extends far beyond motor deficit: patients experience profound disruption of proprioception, fine-touch discrimination, thermal sensing, and grip strength, resulting in a near-total dependence on caregivers for activities of daily living (ADLs).
Who is a Candidate?
Eligibility Criteria
- Bilateral upper-limb amputation at or proximal to the radiocarpal (wrist) joint, with documented failure or inadequacy of prosthetic rehabilitation
- Age range: 18–60 years (pediatric cases evaluated individually; elderly patients excluded due to immunosuppression risk-benefit ratio)
- Adequate residual forearm musculature to enable motor re-innervation; ideally amputation level distal to the elbow (trans-radial or transcarpal)
- Documented stable psychiatric status: absence of active psychosis, substance use disorder, or personality disorders that would compromise medication adherence
- +4 more
Treatment Options & Approaches
- PHASE 1 — DONOR PROCUREMENT AND ALLOGRAFT PREPARATION
Recovery
- STAGE 1 — REMOTE EVALUATION & LISTING (4–8 weeks, conducted from home country)
Risks to be aware of
- Bilateral hand transplantation carries a distinctive risk profile that combines the hazards of prolonged major microsurgery with the systemic consequences of lifelong immunosuppression — a combination that demands rigorous informed consent and ongoing medical surveillance.
