Clinical textbook of kidney transplant immunology is the first comprehensive resource from India dedicated to the immunologic foundations of kidney transplantation. Authored by a team of leading nephrologists, immunologists, and transplant physicians, this book bridges basic immunology with clinical practice.
Covering topics such as HLA typing, panel reactive antibodies, crossmatch methodologies, donor-specific antibody monitoring, non-HLA antibody testing, and practical laboratory set-up, the text provides a structured, algorithm-driven approach for both living and deceased donor transplantation. Each chapter emphasizes practical application in resource-constrained as well as advanced centers, making it uniquely relevant to the Indian and global transplant community.
With detailed figures, tables, and stepwise protocols, this book is an indispensable reference for nephrologists, transplant fellows, surgeons, immunology laboratory professionals, and trainees. It reflects the collective expertise of national leaders in transplantation and aims to standardize and advance immunology practice in kidney transplantation.
This textbook goes beyond theoretical knowledge to serve as a practical companion for transplant physicians. It brings together everyday clinical dilemmas encountered in kidney transplantation and provides clear, stepwise solutions through case-based discussions and algorithms. Each scenario reflects challenges from real-world practice—ranging from immunological risk assessment to post-transplant antibody monitoring—and offers structured pathways for resolution. By combining clinical insights with evidence-based protocols, the book empowers practitioners to make informed decisions and ensures uniformity of care in both routine and complex situations.
