Some patients need more than one organ transplant at the same time (multi-organ transplant). If your patient needs multi-organ transplant:
- You will have separate appointments for each organ
- One organ transplant team will be the primary team
- For example, the heart transplant team will probably be the primary team for a patient who needs heart and kidney transplants
- The primary team will make most decisions during the transplant process
- The primary team will provide care after the transplant
Ask your transplant center about their procedures for multi-organ transplants. See Questions to Consider and Ask Your Transplant Center.
