When a kidney transplant takes place, the surgeon usually won't take out either of the 2 kidneys that the person was born with (unless the kidneys are cancerous or have a disease that will spread to the rest of the body). They will put the new kidney in the abdomen. Sure. I do it all the time. I was just told it could be I thought as long as you have one kidney left you'll be ok??? |
