Ifthisrenalfailurepersists (chronically),this results in end-stage renal failure, accompanied by an accumulation of toxic waste in the body. In this case, transplantation or dialysis isnecessary. • REASON FOR END-STAGE RENALDISEASE • Serious anatomic problems of the urinarysystem • Polycystic kidneydisease • Glomerulonephritis • Hypertension • Diabetic

  2. TREATMENTS FOR END-STAGE RENALDISEASE: The treatments for end-stage renal failure are hemodialysis, a mechanical method of cleaning blood from waste; peritoneal dialysis, inwhich waste is removed by passing chemical solutions through the abdominal cavity; and kidneytransplantation. However, while none of these treatments cure end-stage kidney disease, a transplant offers the closest thing to a normal life because the transplanted kidney can replace the failing kidneys. However, it also involves a lifetime addiction to drugs to keep the new kidney healthy. Some of these medications can have serious sideeffects. Some kidney patients are considering a transplant after dialysis begins; others consider it before starting dialysis. In certain circumstances, dialysis patients who also have serious medical problems such as canceroractiveinfectionsmaynotbe suitablecandidatesforakidneytransplant. KIDNEYDONATION: Kidneysfortransplantcomefromtwodifferent sources:alivingdonororadeceaseddonor. THE LIVINGDONOR Sometimes family members, including parents, a spouse, close friend, aunts, uncles, children (18 years and older), cousins, sisters, brothers may wish to donate a kidney. This person is called a “livingdonor”. The donor must be in excellent health, knowledgeable about the transplant and be able to give informed consent. Anyone in good health can give a kidneysafely. DONORDECEASED: A deceased donor kidney comes from someone who has suffered brain death. The law allows everyone to consent toorgandonationfortransplantationatthetimeofdeathandallowsfamiliestoalsoprovide such permission. After donation authorization is granted, the kidneys are removed and stored until a recipient has beenselected. A more detailed version will be explained inSection 10. ASSESSMENT PROCESS OFTRANSPLANTATION: Regardlessofthetypeofkidneytransplant–deceaseddonororlivingdonor–special bloodtestsare needed to determine what type of blood and tissue is present. These test results help match a donor kidney to therecipient. BLOOD TYPETEST The first test establishes the type of blood. There are four types of blood: O, AB, B, and A. Everyone fits intooneof theseinheritedgroups. Therecipientandthedonormusthaveeitherthecompatiblegroup or same blood groups unless they are participating in a special program to donate one blood group to another. The list below shows the compatibletypes:

Although O blood group persons can give to all types, they can only receive kidneys from type O blood donors. For example, ifa patient with blood group O receives a kidney from a donor blood group. type A, the body will recognize the donor’s kidney as foreign and destroyit. • TISSUETYPING • The second test, which is a blood test for human leukocyte antigens (HLA), which is also called as tissue typing.Antigens aremarkersfoundon manycellsofthebodythatdistinguisheachindividualasunique.
