2 INTRODUCTION Kidney transplantatin has cme as a hpe fr patients suffering frm End Stage Kidney Disease. Successful kidney transplantatin imprves the quality f life and prlngs the survival f uraemic patients cmpared t lng term dialysis patients CASE PRESENTATION Patient is 28 years male is hypertensive, CKD 5 detected in May 2013 since then n maintenance hemdialysis came up fr renal transplant with wife as ptential dnr. MANAGEMENT He was induced with ATG and triple immunsuppressin. Right sided Renal transplant was dne n 29/07/13. Right kidney f dnr was placed in right iliac fssa and vascular anastmses dne t external iliac vessels. Ureter stent was placed. Stent remval after three weeks. Staple remval n 09/08/13. Diuresis was brisk and immediate. Risks f the prcedure Bleeding Infectin Blckage f the bld vessels t the new kidney Leakage f urine r blckage f urine in the ureter Initial lack f functin f the new kidney Befre the prcedure Psychlgical and scial evaluatin Psychlgical and scial issues invlved in rgan transplantatin, such as stress, financial issues, and supprt by family and/r significant thers are assessed. Bld tests Bld tests are perfrmed t help determine a gd dnr match, t assess yur pririty n the dnr list and t help t imprve the chances that the dnr rgan will nt be rejected. Citatin: Supriya et al. Ijppr.Human, 2017; Vl. 10 (2):

3 Diagnstic tests Diagnstic tests may be perfrmed t assess yur kidneys as well as yur verall health status. These tests may include X-rays, ultrasund prcedures, kidney bipsy. After the prcedure Patient will have a catheter in yur bladder t drain yur urine. The amunt f urine will be carefully measured t evaluate the new kidney's functin. Patient will receive IV fluids until yu are able t take in adequate fd and fluids. Patient immunsuppressin (antirejectin) medicatins will be clsely mnitred t make sure yu are receiving the ptimum dse and the best cmbinatin f medicatins. Living with a transplant It s recmmended that yu: quit smking if yu smke eat a healthy diet lse weight if yu are verweight r bese; ideally yu want t achieve a bdy mass index f less than 25. There are tw main treatment ptins when it is knwn kidney failure is likely t ccur: Dialysis, where a mechanical device is used t replicate the functins f the kidney Kidney transplant, which, if pssible, is usually the preferred ptin because it is much less incnvenient than having dialysis. Bld clts Widely used immunsuppressants are: tacrlimus ciclsprin sirlimus azathiprine Citatin: Supriya et al. Ijppr.Human, 2017; Vl. 10 (2):
