Kidney Transplant complications

2017-04-09 11:21:51
Hi Doc My mother has had a kidney transplant in 2004 and she has been on immuno-suppressive drugs since then. Recently, her medical records show development of certain small 'cysts' in the transplanted kidney. Doctors have advised us to go ahead with a biopsy to identify the issue. I need advice whether to go ahead for a complicated procedure like Biopsy for her or is there any other alternative possible. Ready to share medical records and history if required. Thanks! Tapas

No one will do cyst biopsy. Is the creatinine increasing. Any urinary abnormality.
