Live Kidney Donors Report High Satisfaction Rates And Minimal Health Problems

Nine out of ten people who donated a kidney to a partner or family member would make the same decision again and would recommend the procedure to others. Researchers in Egypt, where live donations are the only legal option, also found that donor health was good and often better than the general population. The study was carried out between 2002 and 2007 on patients who had donated a kidney five to 30 years ago.
