Kidney Transplant complications
Hi Doc
My mother has had a kidney transplant in 2004 and she has been on immuno-suppressive drugs since then. Recently, her medical records show development of certain small 'cysts' in the transplanted kidney. Doctors have advised us to go ahead with a biopsy to identify the issue. I need advice whether to go ahead for a complicated procedure like Biopsy for her or is there any other alternative possible. Ready to share medical records and history if required.
Thanks!
