The Department of Nephrology and Renal Transplant at Yashoda Group of Hospitals provides comprehensive care for all kidney-related diseases. Our focus lies in early detection, disease prevention, effective management of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and advanced therapies such as dialysis and renal transplantation. By combining medical excellence, personalized treatment, and compassionate care, we strive to ensure better outcomes and an improved quality of life for our patients.
Hemodialysis
This is a life-sustaining treatment for individuals with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). A machine filters the blood through a dialyser to remove toxins, extra fluid, and waste products that the kidneys can no longer clear. Common symptoms in ESRD like fatigue, swelling, and nausea improve significantly with regular hemodialysis. It is usually done at a hospital or dialysis centre several times a week.
Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD)
CAPD is a home-based dialysis option where the lining of the abdomen (peritoneal membrane) acts as a natural filter. A special dialysis fluid is introduced into the abdominal cavity through a catheter, which absorbs waste and excess fluid, later drained manually. It allows flexibility, independence from centre-based visits, and is often preferred by people who want to maintain a more normal daily routine.
Glomerulonephritis
This refers to inflammation of the kidney’s tiny filtering units, the glomeruli. It may result from infections, autoimmune disorders, or systemic conditions. Symptoms include blood in urine (hematuria), protein leakage (proteinuria), and swelling, especially around the eyes and legs. A kidney biopsy is often necessary to confirm the exact cause and guide treatment.
Diabetic Nephropathy
This is a complication of long-standing diabetes where high blood sugar damages kidney filters. It is usually detected by the presence of protein in urine, along with swelling in the legs and rising blood creatinine levels. If not managed early, it can progress to kidney failure. Strict control of blood sugar and blood pressure helps slow its progression.
Kidney Stones (Renal Stones)
These are hard deposits made of minerals and salts that form inside the kidneys. They can move into the urinary tract, causing severe pain radiating from the loin to the groin, blood in the urine, and sometimes blockage of urine flow. Treatment ranges from pain management and increased hydration to surgical procedures like lithotripsy, depending on stone size and location.
Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)
UTIs occur when bacteria infect the urinary tract, which may involve the bladder, ureters, or kidneys. Symptoms often include burning sensation during urination, frequent urge to urinate, cloudy urine, and pelvic discomfort. Prompt treatment with antibiotics is important to prevent spread to the kidneys, which can cause more serious complications.
Kidney Biopsy
This is a key diagnostic test where a small tissue sample is taken from the kidney using a fine needle, usually under ultrasound guidance. It helps determine the type and severity of kidney disease, such as glomerulonephritis or diabetic nephropathy, and is critical for guiding treatment decisions.

A challenging Case of renal transplant with a history of >22 units of blood transfusion and class 1 DSA positive
A 26-year-old male was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease after developing generalised weakness and loss of appetite. Investigations revealed impaired renal function with a creatinine of 12 mg/dl and haemoglobin of 5 g/dl. He was started on haemodialysis through a catheter placed in the right side of his neck and advised AV fistula creation with maintenance haemodialysis three times a week.

A challenging Case of renal transplant with a history of >22 units of blood transfusion and class 1 DSA positive
A 26-year-old male was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease after developing generalised weakness and loss of appetite. Investigations revealed impaired renal function with a creatinine of 12 mg/dl and haemoglobin of 5 g/dl. He was started on haemodialysis through a catheter placed in the right side of his neck and advised AV fistula creation with maintenance haemodialysis three times a week.
Despite regular dialysis, his anaemia persisted and he required multiple blood transfusions (more than 22 units over three months) even while receiving erythropoietin and iron therapy. Anaemia workup revealed occult blood in the stool, and upper GI endoscopy confirmed peptic ulcer disease.
He consulted our team of nephrologists (Dr Prajit Mazumdar and Dr Inderjit G. Momin) and urologists (Dr Vaibhav Saxena and Dr Kuldeep Agarwal) at Yashoda Superspeciality Hospitals, Kaushambi, where renal transplantation was advised. His mother, who had a matching blood group, was identified as the donor. However, transplant workup revealed donor-specific antibodies on single antigen bead testing (Class I) with an MFI greater than 2500 on multiple beads, most likely due to the multiple blood transfusions. This significantly increased the risk of acute rejection in the immediate post-transplant period, making the case high-risk.
After thorough counselling regarding risks, he underwent desensitisation with two sessions of plasmapheresis and IVIg to reduce the donor-specific antibodies. He then successfully underwent renal transplantation with ATG induction. Post-transplant, he maintained good urine output with steadily improving creatinine levels and was discharged with a creatinine of 1.2 mg/dl.
He continues to do well on outpatient follow-up.

A middle aged male was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease when he developed generalized body weakness, puffiness of face and swelling of legs with nausea, intermittent vomiting . On Investigations, he was found to have deranged renal function with urea-300 mg/dl,creatinine of 15 mg/dl, hb-9 mg and was subsequently started on hemodialysis via catheter inserted in right side of neck.
He subsequently visited India where he consulted our expert team of doctors-Dr Prajit Mazumdar, Dr Inderjit G Momin,Dr Vaibhav Saxena and Dr Kuldeep Agarwal at Yashoda superspeciality Hospital, Kausambi who advised her to under renal transplant as it is the best form of renal replacement therapy. His Transplant workup was subsequently started and donor was wife and blood group was same.
However on transplant work up, it was found that he had Mitral Regurgitation, pulmonary hypertension and low ejection fraction-35% which increased his peri operative risk. Subsequently he was started on medicines and decongestion was done with diuretics and intensive hemodialysis. Subsequently renal transplantation was done after obtaining cardiology clearance with moderate risk and explaining the risk.
He underwent renal transplantation with Solumedrol and ATG induction. After transplantation he had good urine output with decreasing creatinine and was subsequently discharged with creatinine of 1.2 mg/dl . After transplant his pulmonary hypertension decreased and mitral regurgitation decreased which proves renal replacement therapy in form of transplant leads to improvement of cardiac condition. He is doing well on OPD follow up even today, 1.5 year after transplant with stable graft function and enjoying his life in myanmar.

She was advised maintenance haemodialysis three times a week.
She consulted our expert team of doctors including Dr Prajit Mazumdar, Dr Inderjit G. Momin, Dr Vaibhav Saxena, and Dr Kuldeep Agarwal at Yashoda Superspeciality Hospital, Kaushambi. They recommended renal transplantation as the most effective form of renal replacement therapy. Her transplant workup was initiated, with her mother considered as the first donor option.
However, her mother was found to have diabetes, her father had a cardiac condition, and her husband was not a compatible blood group. With limited donor options, her mother-in-law, who had a matching blood group, came forward to donate a kidney and save her daughter-in-law’s life.
After obtaining clearance from cardiology, pulmonology, gynaecology, and psychiatry, along with approval from the authorisation committee, the transplant was successfully carried out with ATG induction. Post-transplant, she maintained good urine output with steadily improving creatinine levels. She was discharged with a creatinine of 1.2 mg/dl. The donor also recovered well and continues to do fine.

A case of ABO incompatible transplant with high ANTI B TITRES
A 37-year-old male was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease three years ago after presenting with frothy urine and hypertension. Initial investigations revealed a serum creatinine of 3 mg/dl. Over the next few years, his kidney function deteriorated, and he was started on maintenance haemodialysis three times a week via an arteriovenous fistula. He was referred to our hospital by a former recipient who had undergone renal transplantation under Dr Prajit Mazumdar. On evaluation by our team of doctors, the need for renal transplantation was explained in view of end-stage renal disease.
His transplant workup was initiated, with his father considered as the first donor. However, he was rejected due to diabetes. Donor evaluation of his mother was then undertaken, but her blood group was incompatible with the recipient. In view of ABO incompatibility, anti-A and anti-B titres were assessed and revealed a high anti-B titre.
After detailed counselling regarding prognosis, risks, and cost, the family opted to proceed with an ABO-incompatible renal transplant. Rituximab was administered two weeks prior to transplantation, and he was started on tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil. This was followed by two sessions of Glycosorb column treatment on days 12 and 14, after which his anti-B titre decreased to 1:2. He then underwent renal transplantation with Solumedrol and Simulect induction, with anti-B titres monitored every 12 hours.
Post-transplant, he maintained brisk urine output and his serum creatinine gradually declined. He was discharged with a creatinine of 1.2 mg/dl and continues to do well on follow-up.
