The Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation ('SIUT') is a dialysis & kidney transplant centre located in Pakistan.
SIUT was founded by Dr. Adibul Hasan Rizvi and it is Pakistan's largest kidney disease center, as well as Pakistan's largest public sector health organisation. It began as a department of urology at the government-run Civil Hospital in 1970 and became autonomous in 1991. 10-12 transplants are performed weekly, and in 2003 doctors at SIUT performed Pakistan's first liver transplant. In 2004, a child care unit was opened.
All services provided by SIUT, including dialysis and transplantation, are provided free of cost.
