The kidney is an important organ in the body because it is responsible for eliminating excess water and waste from the body. Therefore, if there is chronic kidney disease, it can lead to a buildup of waste in the body. This condition should be diagnosed and treated properly as leaving it untreated can lead to other serious complications. Patients with chronic kidney disease usually undergo dialysis with a kidney machine or peritoneal dialysis to remove waste from the body. However, nowadays the best treatment for chronic kidney disease is through kidney transplantation, with a success rate of up to 95-98% for living donors and up to 85-90% for brain dead donors. After the transplant, patients can have a better quality of life and return to their normal daily activities. The kidneys are essential organs that play a crucial role in eliminating excess water and waste products from the body. Therefore, chronic kidney disease can lead to the accumulation of toxic substances in the body, which can cause severe complications if left untreated. As such, it is essential to diagnose and manage chronic kidney disease appropriately to prevent further complications. Patients with chronic kidney disease typically undergo hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis to remove waste products from their bodies. However, kidney transplantation is currently the most effective treatment for end-stage renal disease. With a success rate of up to 95-98% for living donor transplants and up to 85-90% for deceased donor transplants, kidney transplantation offers a high chance of restoring a patient’s quality of life. In conclusion, managing chronic kidney disease effectively is crucial to prevent the buildup of toxic substances in the body and avoid further complications. Kidney transplantation is currently the most effective treatment for end-stage renal disease, offering patients a high chance of regaining a good quality of life.
