Kidney Transplantation
Kidney transplantation places a healthy kidney from a living or deceased donor into the lower abdomen of a person with kidney failure, joining its artery and vein to the pelvic vessels and its ureter to the bladder, so the new kidney filters blood and produces urine while the failed kidneys are usually left in place.

ABO-Incompatible Kidney Transplantation
ABO-incompatible kidney transplantation allows a living donor whose blood group does not match the recipient's to donate, by first lowering the recipient's anti-blood-group antibodies with plasma exchange or immunoadsorption and an antibody-depleting drug (rituximab), then transplanting when the antibody level is low enough and continuing enhanced immunosuppression afterwards.

Kidney Transplant Evaluation and Follow-up
Kidney transplant evaluation and follow-up is the nephrology work-up and graft-surveillance pathway — HLA, DSA, protocol laboratories and biopsy thresholds — not the operation itself. Recipient and, where relevant, donor pathways run as outpatient or short-stay investigations. After a graft exists, clinics titrate immunosuppression and decide when a graft biopsy is due.

Hemodialysis
Hemodialysis in India filters blood through a dialyzer several times a week when residual kidney function can no longer control volume, solutes or symptoms. Costs vary with session frequency, facility, vascular access, laboratories and associated medical care. Blood is withdrawn through an arteriovenous fistula, graft or central catheter, passed through a dialyzer and returned. A typical session lasts about four hours. Anticoagulation, ultrafiltration and dry-weight targets are set for that sitting.

Peritoneal Dialysis
Peritoneal dialysis uses the peritoneal membrane and a catheter to exchange dialysis fluid at home or in hospital, when residual function and training already write PD rather than in-centre HD. Dialysis fluid is instilled through a peritoneal catheter, dwells, then drains. CAPD uses manual exchanges; APD uses a cycler overnight. Infection-prevention steps are part of the product.

Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT)
CRRT is slow, continuous dialysis used in ICU when shock or severe fluid overload makes intermittent HD poorly tolerated. A large-vein catheter feeds a continuous circuit. Fluid and solute are removed over many hours. Filters, replacement fluid and anticoagulation are titrated in ICU.

Dialysis Catheter Placement
Dialysis catheter placement inserts a large-vein line so HD or ICU dialysis can start before a fistula is ready, or when temporary access is the honest first step. Under sterile conditions and usually ultrasound, a dialysis catheter is placed in an internal jugular or femoral vein. Position is checked and HD can follow if written.

AV Fistula Creation
AV fistula creation joins an artery to a vein, usually in the arm, so repeated HD needles can be used once the vein has matured. Under local or regional anaesthesia, selected vessels are anastomosed. The patient recovers with arm-elevation and thrill checks. Needling waits on documented maturation.

Percutaneous Renal Biopsy
Percutaneous renal biopsy samples native kidney tissue under imaging so histology can explain proteinuria, unexplained AKI or a suspected glomerular disease. The patient lies prone. Under ultrasound, a spring-loaded needle takes cores from the lower pole. Observation for bleeding follows. Tissue is sent for light microscopy and, when written, IF and EM.
