Dr.Sir, My younger brother(cousine) was transplanted kidney in 2004 at Apollo Hospital, New Delhi. Everything was normal till may 2011. Now the creatinine level has gone up to 6. The Dr. who is treating him is saying that if creatinine level dosnt  go down, we have to go for dialysis and also there is no other chance to second transplant as this may also get damage due to protine leakage. Ultrasound report shows no accumulation of urine in body and urine flow is ok. my question is that:1. Is there any scope of stem cell therapy for kidney?2. Can we get this treatment in India and where?3. Is Dr.H.L.Trivedi extends stem cell therapy for kidney? 3. Any other expert opinion from your side on this issue as my uncle is very much upset about his only child.
Dear user, stem cell therapy is actually not indicated for renal diseases. There are some institutions recruiting patients, but not those patients with a general diagnosis of CKD (e.g. Renal artery stenosis, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, US). Why is he not a candidate for a second transplant? Make sure to get a second opinion. Take care,
