Stage 5 Kidney Disease Stage 5 Kidney disease is used for end-stage renal (kidney failure) (ESRD), which means that the renal disease occurs when your estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) falls below 15, indicating that your kidneys are failing or close to failing.

At ESRD, it’s important to work with a kidney doctor (nephrologist) to determine which treatment option may best fit your lifestyle.

Does my donor kidney need to be same sex and same colour as me? For most patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), the only treatment strategy is renal transplantation. Kidney transplantation has become a better cost-effective alternative to dialysis as a result of several improvements in early graft survival and long-term graft function. The first kidney transplantation was performed about half a century ago in which the transplant was performed from a live donor to his identical twin.

The most successful transplant based on donor-recipient gender has been observed in male donor to male recipient, and then male donor to female recipient. In female transplant recipients, level of serum creatinine and eGFR, positive dialysis history before transplant, and low donor hemo...
