ABO incompatible kidney donation is now a viable option. Advances in paired kidney exchange and desensitization protocols offer alternatives to waiting for a deceased donor kidney transplant.

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Transplantation Immunology

Background:

  • ABO incompatible donors are a barrier to living donor kidney transplantation.
  • Paired kidney donor exchange and desensitization protocols are emerging solutions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review therapeutic options for ABO incompatible living donor kidney transplantation.
  • To emphasize the rationale and outcomes of ABO incompatible kidney transplants.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on ABO incompatible kidney transplantation.
  • Analysis of paired kidney exchange programs and desensitization protocols.

Main Results:

  • Successful implementation of paired kidney exchange programs.
  • Development of effective protocols to overcome ABO blood group barriers.
