However, kidney transplantation is limited in Japan, due to the extreme shortage of cadarveric grafts. Meanwhile, although in the following cases a living donor was willing to donate his/her kidney, the transplantation was thought to be impossible because of the possibility of hyperacute rejection which might lead kidney dysfunction; cases in which ABO blood type was incompatibie between a donor and a recipient. Targeting such cases, we performed the transplantation after performing blood purification including plasma exchange and immunoadsorption to remove anti-A and /or anti-B antibodies. As the result, we successfully extended opportunities for kidney transplantation. In this paper, I discussed ABO-incompatible kidney transplantation.}, pages = {129--135}, title = {ABO血液型不適合腎移植}, volume = {110}, year = {1996} }
