What are the symptoms of rejection of kidney transplantation?
The most common symptoms of rejection rejection are symptoms similar to influenza, reduced urine output, weight gain overnight, pain in the field of transplantation and fatigue. A slight episode of rejection may not be guided externally with clinical symptoms. Refusal refers to a protective immune response to the body to a transplanted kidney. The rejection of transplantation usually does not lead to permanent damage to the transplanted organ. It is treated by adjusting immunosuppressive drugs. Medicines such as Takolimus (Prograf®) or Cyclosporin A (Sandimmune®) are used after transplantation before renal rejection after transplantation, but rejection of kidney transplantation may still occur in 10 to 20 percent of patients. Rejection does not necessarily indicate immediate failure or loss of transplanted organ. The probability of rejection of kidney transplantation is the largest during the first six months after the transplant and rejection becomes less likely over time.

Other means to diagnose rejection rejection refusal include the scanning of the kidney flow, which is used to control blood flow to a new kidney and a small piece of kidney biopsy. The episode of rejection is a healingENA short hospitalization to provide intravenous immunosuppressive drugs, perform repeated laboratory tests to evaluate blood and assess the patient's progress by adjusting the drug.
