Kim, Lee, and Huh: Recent Advancement in Renal Transplantation

Abstract

This review will focus on the current issues in the government-driven regulation of transplantation practice in Korea, Korean renal transplant statistics, unrelated renal transplantation, renal transplantation in cross-match positive patients, preemptive renal transplantation, non-invasive renal imaging, novel minimally-invasive living donor nephrectomy, and tailored immunosuppression.
