Kidney Transplant Process

Kidney transplant was introduced as a therapy for renal (kidney) failure more than 40 years ago. Since that time, the number of kidney transplants performed in the United States has increased dramatically. Kidney transplantation is now widely recognized as the most effective treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD), the final stage of kidney failure.
