Kidney Function

Kidney transplantation or renal transplantation is a kidney transplant in a patient with end-stage renal disease. Depending on the source of the organ recipient, kidney transplantation is typically classified as deceased donor (formerly known as cadaveric) or living donor transplant. Kidney transplants from living donors are more thoroughly as transplant genetically related (living-relative) or unrelated transplant (living-unrelated), depending on whether or not there is a biological relationship between donor and recipient.
