Kidney Transplant Fellowship Training Program

The Kidney Transplant Fellowship Program at Labbafinejad Medical Center is certified by the Middle East Society of Organ Transplantation (MESOT) .

With more than 3000 kidney transplants since its inception, The Kidney Transplantation Center at Labbafinejad Medical Center is one of the busiest in the country. We perform approximately 200 kidney transplants annually, nearly 80% of which are living donor transplants. The Division of Transplantation is part of the Department of Urology .A minimum of twelve months is spent on the kidney transplant inpatient service and outpatient clinic. Three Kidney Transplant Fellowship positions will be available per year. Physicians who have completed their training in Urology at an accredited program and are Iranian board certified are accepted through a national matching program. The Kidney Transplant Fellowship participates in the matching program run by urology department. Foreign applicants should be communicating with Dr simforoosh (simforoosh @iurtc.org.ir).

All transplant patients are admitted to the Transplant Service as necessary for preoperative evaluation, perioperative care, and postoperative complications and care. Fellows round daily as a team with staff, visiting all transplant patients.

More than 1000 laparoscopic donor nephrectomy were done at our center from 2000.

Also 80% of kidney donations at our country are from living, cadaveric kidney transplantation especially at the recent years is popularized and it frequency is increased.
