Summary
Kidney transplant surgery has evolved since the 1930s, overcoming immune rejection challenges. Currently, organ matching is less strict due to advanced immunosuppressive therapies. The surgery involves minimally invasive techniques, and while kidney transplants can last 12-20 years, many patients wait for donors, with 17 dying daily due to organ shortages.
