HLA report show no common antigen at HLA class I and II loci and GFR is 75. Please let me know if transplant will be successful with these reports. all other reports are ok
HelloThanks for query. Your brother is a victim of Chronic Renal Parenchymal disease (CRF) and needs Renal Transplant. His wife is being investigated for compatibility for transplant and her HLA I and II tests have been detected not have common antigen .HLA I add II testing are highly specific test to determine the outcome of renal transplant and risk of rejection of transplanted kidney in recipient after surgery. Since your brothers wife and brother have no common antigen and her GFR being 75 the chances of success are very high and can go ahead with surgery. Chat Doctor.
