Features: In recent years, the concepts, principles, and technologies of renal replacement therapy have made significant advancements. To promptly reflect these important developments, we have invited experts and scholars with extensive experience in the field of renal replacement therapy to extensively revise the edition. We hope that this book continues to serve as a valuable guide for urologists, nephrologists, and kidney transplant physicians in the new century, thereby playing a crucial reference role. This book is a specialized work on renal replacement therapy for patients with chronic kidney disease and uremia. It covers three major sections: hemopurification, kidney transplantation, and renal replacement therapy for special patients. The book systematically elaborates on the etiology, pathogenesis, and pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease and uremia, as well as the methods, fundamental principles, and clinical practices of dialysis and kidney transplantation. The second edition of this book includes additional information on HLA tissue typing techniques.
