Why kidney transplant is better than dialysis

Renal failure patients' long-term prognoses and the survival rate of patients with end-stage kidney disease are both improved by kidney transplantation. It takes strong immunosuppression to keep a kidney transplant from failing. Transplant surgery is less expensive than dialysis in terms of hospitalisation costs after the procedure. 

Complexities

Significant risks are associated with kidney transplant surgery. The most frequent ones are rejection or failure of the given kidney, infection and bleeding, and leakage from or obstruction of the ureter, the tube connecting the kidney to the bladder.
