Q: What is kidney transplantation?
A: The best long term solution for kidney failure (Acute renal
failure) is kidney transplantation. A functioning kidney is used in

chances of rejection of transplanted kidney by the immune system of
the host. Modern clinical procedures have increased the success rate
of such complicated technique.
