Offers state-of-the-art coverage of all areas of kidney transplantation such as preservation of kidneys; mechanisms of rejection and the induction of tolerance; techniques of laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy; and immunosuppression.
Contains up-to-date outcomes data and analysis of the evidence supporting current practice in the field.
Includes new information on desensitization and considerable new data on the clinical use of costimulation blockade.
Keeps you current with new chapters on kidney allocation policy that reflects the ethical and societal values of different countries and populations; and biomarkers of kidney injury and rejection, including the need for better monitoring tools to guide therapy and patient management.
Covers hot topics such as management of chronic allograft failure, the sensitized patient and antibody-mediated rejection, and paired exchange principles.
Features hundreds of superb illustrations to help you visualize key concepts and nuances of renal transplantation.
Provides dynamic visual guidance with new real-time video coverage of ultrasound-guided pancreas allograft biopsy; a new animation of calcineurin inhibitor mechanism of action animation; and videos that demonstrate the formation of an immune synapse, 3-D rotational images of immune synapses, an NK cell killing its target, peritoneal dialysis-catheter insertion techniques, laparoendoscopic single site (LESS) donor nephrectomy, and more.
Enhanced eBook version included with purchase, which allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices
Stuart Knechtle, M.D. is the William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor of Surgery and Executive Director of the Duke Transplant Center.

In 2015 he returned to Duke to establish the Duke Transplant Center and serve as its Executive Director. He holds the William R. Kenan, Jr. Chair in Surgery at Duke. His clinical practice includes kidney, pancreas, and liver transplantation. He directs translational research in transplant immunology and currently serves as Principal Investigator of two NIH-funded clinical trials addressing the challenges of antibody-mediated injury of kidney transplants. He has published over 400 peer reviewed papers, over 60 book chapters, edited four textbooks, and serves on several editorial boards including Annals of Surgery. Lorna Marson is Professor of Transplant Surgery at the University of Edinburgh, and Honorary Consultant Surgeon at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh. Lorna held a Clinician Scientist Award from the Academy of Medical Sciences/ Health Foundation from 2003-2008, and continues to work in clinically relevant research in renal transplantation, with translation of a novel agent from bench to bedside. Lorna is Past President of the British Transplantation Society, elected Board member of the European Kidney Transplant Association, and Co-Director of the UK Organ Donation and Transplantation Research Network.
