Anonymous kidney donation program turns strangers into friends

An innovative program that allows kidney donation among strangers may offer new hope for some patients on the transplant list at The Nebraska Medical Center. The area’s first anonymous living kidney donation recently took place with transplant surgeons from UNMC taking a kidney from a 48-year-old Kansas man and transplanting it into an Omaha teenager.
