Uterus Transplant

Overview

Uterus transplant is a pioneering procedure for women with absolute uterine factor infertility, allowing them to conceive and carry their own pregnancy. This complex surgery involves transplanting a healthy uterus from a donor.

Indications

• Congenital absence of uterus (MRKH syndrome)
• Surgical removal of uterus (hysterectomy)
• Infertility due to uterine factor

Procedure

The surgery involves precise vascular and ligamentous anastomosis to attach the donor uterus to the recipient’s pelvic anatomy. Post-transplant, immunosuppressive therapy is administered to prevent rejection, and IVF is used for conception.

Benefits

• Allows biological motherhood for women without a uterus
• Revolutionary fertility solution
• High success rates in specialized centers

Recovery

Hospital stay typically 2–3 weeks; full recovery takes several months with close follow-up and IVF planning.
