Live From Surgery: Watch a Kidney Transplant

Live From Surgery

Peek inside the operating room! Join LSC Distance Learning Specialist Alejandro Melendez as he takes you through a kidney transplant.

See the procedure in all its intricate detail, and watch as doctors remove the kidney from a living donor, prepare the kidney, and transplant it into its recipient. Check it out here:

LSC’s Live From Surgery program offers viewers a unique opportunity to peer into an operating room and see the procedure up close. This live stream was broadcast on Liberty Science Center's Facebook page on Thursday, March 26 – the very first time we streamed our Live From Surgery program via social media!

We have more amazing live streams in the works! Be sure to follow us on Facebook for all updates, and regularly check our "LSC in the House" page for all of our at-home digital experiences.

We would like to give a special thank you to the members and supporters who continue to make this science learning possible through their support of the LSC Sustainability Fund!
