Kidney transplant is a surgical procedure performed for those patients who have chronic kidney disease and require dialysis, a treatment to remove toxins from the blood. Most frequently, chronic kidney disease is due to complications of diabetes and high blood pressure.
Kidney transplant allows patients to avoid the need for dialysis and have increased energy and a better quality of life. Patients may receive a kidney from a deceased donor or a live donor– from a relative or someone unrelated with a compatible blood type.
Please watch the above video to learn more about kidney transplantation, from evaluation to transplant, at Queen’s Transplant Center.
The first kidney transplant in Hawaii was performed in 1969. Since that time, more than 1,750 patients have received a kidney transplant.

If a living donor is not available, the patient will be submitted to the national waiting list for a deceased donor organ. To find out more about how to become a living donor for a friend or a relative, read more about our living donor program.
