Get Free ConsultationBangladesh's transplant infrastructure is still developing relative to demand, and India's living-donor liver transplant (LDLT) programmes are among the highest-volume in the world — which is why so many of the same questions come up from Bangladeshi families.
A living, related donor — typically a parent, spouse, sibling or child — is required under Indian transplant law. See our full Transplant page for donor-eligibility detail.
Quoted figures online range from $18,000 to $50,000+ mainly because some cover surgery only, while others bundle donor work-up and medication — MedTrav itemises this before you travel.
Once donor compatibility is confirmed, most transplants are scheduled within 2–3 weeks — far faster than a deceased-donor wait in most home health systems.
Recipient's liver function tests, imaging and diagnosis reviewed, alongside prospective donor details.
A transplant hepatologist in India confirms the diagnosis and recommended approach over video call.
Blood group and tissue matching confirm which family member is eligible to donate.
Invitation letters and donor consent documentation arranged for both travellers.
Surgery followed by extended monitoring, with a structured follow-up plan shared with the patient's physician in Bangladesh.
Living-donor liver transplant (LDLT) packages typically cost $25,000–$40,000 in 2026, depending on case complexity and hospital — confirmed exactly once the recipient's and donor's reports are reviewed.
Indian law defines specific 'near relative' categories — parent, spouse, sibling, child — as automatically eligible living donors. Other donors require additional government authorisation committee approval, which MedTrav helps document in advance.
Most patients plan for 3–4 weeks in India covering donor work-up, surgery and initial recovery, though this depends on the recipient's condition and how quickly donor compatibility is confirmed.
Medanta — The Medicity in Gurugram and Rela Hospital in Chennai are among the most common matches for Bangladeshi liver transplant referrals, both running high-volume living-donor liver transplant programmes.
Yes — MedTrav arranges a free tele-consultation second opinion with an Indian transplant hepatologist using the patient's existing reports, before any travel or donor testing is booked.
