We are the World’s Reference Center for Organ Transplantation
Step into a new chapter confidently at Memorial Hospitals Group, where we are redefining organ transplantation. Our world-renowned facilities and experienced professionals are committed to excellence, performing thousands of organ transplants annually. With our personalized treatment plans and advanced surgical techniques, including robotic options, we provide exceptional care that meets your unique needs.
At Memorial Hospitals Group, we excel in performing a variety of organ transplants, including kidney and liver surgeries, using both open and robotic surgical techniques. Following the necessary examinations for patients diagnosed with organ failure. Our experienced surgeons develop tailored treatment strategies through detailed evaluations, choosing the optimal surgical method to address each patient’s unique condition.
During the robotic surgery, surgeons make 8-10 cm incisions, which helps patients to experience less pain and discomfort, allowing them to return to their normal lives more quickly.
The 3D imaging provides surgeons with more precise and detailed guidance for the organ transplant process, supporting minimally invasive surgery.
Robotic surgery enables surgeons to make minimally invasive incisions, reducing the risks of complications, infection, or bleeding and minimizing the need for blood transfusions.
The advanced technology allows surgeons to perform complex procedures with greater control. The use of minimal incisions in robotic surgery reduces the length of hospital stay and provides a shorter recovery time.
Robotic Kidney Transplantation
Cross Kidney Transplantation
Robotic Liver Transplantation
Bone Marrow Transplantation
Seamless Cornea Transplantation
Robotic kidney transplantation provides a safer alternative to conventional open organ transplant surgery, particularly beneficial for high-risk patients, including those with obesity.
This innovative procedure involves the implantation of a healthy kidney from the donor into the recipient through a minimally invasive incision of 7-10 cm in the abdomen.
Kidney transplantation is one of the organ transplant types that requires a tissue and blood group match between the patient and the donor. In cases where a direct match proves unattainable, a viable alternative emerges, recognized as a cross kidney transplant.
Within the medical expertise of Memorial Hospital in Türkiye cross organ transplants can be performed between two or more patient and donor groups in a similar situation.
Robotic liver transplantation from living donors emerges as a cutting-edge approach, mitigating the risk of complications for donors while facilitating return to normal life more easily. Although it provides a better view for the surgeon, it requires expertise due to the anatomy of the liver.
Memorial Hospital Group has successfully performed four types of bone marrow transplants:
Autologous bone marrow transplantation requires cells to be taken from the individual, frozen, and then transplanted back.
Allogeneic-related bone marrow transplantation uses cells from a relative who meets the organ transplant requirements.
Allogeneic Unrelated Bone Marrow transplantation uses cells from an unrelated donor.
Bone Marrow Transplantation uses cells from a donor with a certain percentage of matching.
Cornea transplant is a surgical procedure that involves replacing a damaged or diseased cornea with a healthy one from a cadaver. There are two techniques used for corneal transplantation:
The Penetrating Keratoplasty (PK) procedure involves the complete removal of the patient's damaged cornea, which is then replaced with healthy donor corneal tissue.
The Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK) technique only removes the upper layers of the patient's cornea and replaces them with healthy donor tissue.

I had a kidney transplant at Memorial Hospital. I received successful treatment and a friendly Attitude. Dr.Volkan Turunc is a great specialist. Thanks to him, I now live a full life. Sibel Nizam and Seniya Muhtaroğlu took care of my translation; she is nice. Thanks to everyone who took care of me.
I had a Liver transplant surgery in the hospital, and I can’t describe how helpful the staff was. DR.K.YALCİN POLAT did the surgery, and he was the best choice, the way he treats his patients tells us that there is no worry at all He keeps on touch and caring about his patients till i go out from the hospital to make sure that I’m ok . And about the transla...
I was a liver donor, and the surgery took place at Memorial Sisli Hospital. The team was headed by professor Koray Acarli. He was very attentive. The nurses checked on me frequently and didn’t leave anything to chance. Since I didn’t speak Turkish, we had an interpreter (Aysun) who ensured no miscommunication between us and the medical team.
I was a liver donor patient. The whole team and the way I went were great! Starting from pre-op preparation, all the specialists, lab assistants, the amazing operating team and the post-op care department, they are all very great PEOPLE. The whole process went smoothly thanks to the translator coordinators!

Following the bone marrow transplantation process, patients may have some complications like cell rejection, incompatibility, and infection. Allogeneic transplants, which use donor marrow, can result in graft-versus-host disease, where transplanted stem cells attack the recipient's tissues.
Just like any other organ transplant procedure, corneal transplantation may result in complications like tissue rejection, infection, and bleeding.
Complications for bone marrow donors are generally minimal. Anesthesia side effects are the primary concern, as with many other operations. Postoperatively, it is normal to experience temporary fatigue and pain.
Due to the higher risk of complications after the operation in older age groups, individuals aged 60 and above are not recommended to be bone marrow donors.
Following the surgical procedure, patients may necessitate a hospital stay ranging from one to three months, aimed at reducing the risk of infection. Having been discharged, it is necessary to take precautions at home to prevent infection for a minimum of one year. Throughout this period, patients can gradually reintegrate into their routine physical activities.
Exercise is crucial for the recovery process. After the operation, light exercises can be performed as long as recommended by the doctor.
Medical conditions that make potential donors unsuitable for bone marrow donation include severe arthritis, autoimmune diseases, bleeding disorders, cancer, chronic Lyme disease, diabetes requiring insulin, heart disease, hepatitis B or C, and kidney disease.
There is no strict age limit for kidney transplantation. However, the majority of kidney transplant operations occur between the ages of 45-65. When deciding on the operation, experts generally consider whether the ages of both the patient and the donor are close to each other.
