Non-heart-beating donor, 10-year experience in a Belgian transplant center.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The main treatment modalities for chronic kidney disease (CKD) are dialysis and kidney transplantation. While kidney transplantation provides better survival and quality of life outcomes, it is a new treatment option in Ghana. Finding kidney donors for transplant may be a major challenge due to varied views ...
