Extract

For patients who have had the misfortune to develop terminal renal failure, three basic modes of treatment can be offered. One is renal transplantation, with a graft taken from either a living or a cadaveric donor. When successful, it offers the best quality of life and treatment for patients with end-stage kidney disease. However, the elderly and those with severe cardiovascular or systemic complications are not always suitable candidates for renal transplantation (1).
