a must

simply, i love this book. nicely written, informations well wrapped, easy to digest. i consider it as a must to have for evey nephrologist.

Awesome!

I am a nephrologist-in-training in Los Angeles. During our renal transplant months, this is the only book I carry around. It has everything a nephrology fellow needs to know about transplant: including transplant selection, periop and postop complications, types and treatment of rejection, all the information you need regarding immunosuppressive medications, and concise what-to-do-on-call information for fellows taking care of post-op renal transplant patients. I found that I never needed to look in another book during my transplant month. What an awesome book!

An efficient overview of the kidney transplant process

From options for treatment of end-stage renal disease to transplantation and post-operative management, this very complete and efficient overview offers new learners adequate information as well as a handy reference to renal transplant clinicians. This book was an invaluable study reference for my professional certification. The information reflects current UNOS policy regarding HLA tissue matching and cadaveric kidney distribution for transplantation. A must!
