Common Queries

Frequently Asked Questions

Understand the transplant process, financial scopes, local coordination, and surgical standards.

What is lung transplantation?
Lung transplantation is an advanced surgical procedure to replace diseased lungs with healthy donor lungs. It is standard treatment for patients with end-stage lung failure who are no longer responding to medical drugs.
Who is eligible for a lung transplant?
Eligible patients are generally under 65, have end-stage lung diseases (like IPF, severe COPD, bronchiectasis), have no other major organ failures (kidney/liver/heart), have strong family support, and are willing to adhere to life-long post-op guidelines.
How long does the recovery process take?
Initial hospital recovery takes 14 to 21 days. The patient will then spend 3 months in home quarantine, avoiding public contact to prevent infections. Normal sedentary life can usually resume after 3 to 4 months.
How do I book an evaluation at a Kerala centre?
You can request an evaluation directly through our website contact form, call us, or message us on WhatsApp. Our transplant coordinator will assist you in collecting previous reports and scheduling an OPD at Calicut, Kochi, or Trivandrum.
How much does a lung transplant cost in India?
The estimated cost of lung transplant surgery in India ranges from ₹32 lakh to ₹48 lakh ($40,000–$60,000). The actual cost depends on the hospital, type of transplant, surgeon’s fees, duration of hospitalization, intensive care, and post-transplant treatment. Contact the transplant centre for a personalized cost estimate.
Do Kerala centres perform the surgical procedure?
No. The surgeries are strictly performed in Bangalore due to the intense infrastructure required. Kerala centres are fully equipped to handle all pre-transplant testing, patient preparation, and post-surgery follow-up checkups.
What are the risks associated with lung transplantation?
Rejection and infection are two major risks associated with lung transplantation. Long-term use of immunosuppressive medications may also cause complications, including kidney damage, diabetes, and high cholesterol. Regular follow-up and medical monitoring are essential to detect and manage these risks.
