Question

In which of the following cases, a kidney transplant is postponed?

• A. Donated kidney does not pass the viability test.
• B. The recipient is suffering from an infection.
• C. Donor is a xenograft.
• D. All of the above.

Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above.

Kidney transplantation is recommended for a person who is suffering from a chronic kidney disorder or may have suffered through renal failure for any one or both kidneys and is surviving with the help of dialysis. The kidney transplantation may be postponed in the cases like the graft from the donor is rejected on the basis of complement or viability test. The transplantation may be delayed when the patient is suffering from some infection. The delay may be due to the donor being a xenograft belonging to other species.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
