[|AI|]  HelloThanks for query. Based on the information that you have provided I would like to answer your queries as under 1)In view of age of your wife being 30 years (she is young) and has very long life to live hence I would suggest you to go for Renal Transplant.2) I would suggest you to arrange for related donor It gives good results and longer life to the recipient after transplant as chances of kidney rejection are very less with kidney of a related donor.3)Patient has to be in hospital for 10 -15 days .4)You will need to stay in Chennai for one more week just for observation .5)The cost of surgery differs from hospital to Hospital but on an average it would cost you about 10-15 lakhs Indian rupee in good corporate hospital.6) Hospital will issue all the bills and invoices that you will pay for. You have to inquire with your insurance co in the USA whether they can reimburse the cost of treatment if treated in India. Chat Doctor.
