pubmed:abstractText |
Human immunodeficiency virus-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) has become the third leading cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in African Americans, and is expected to grow exponentially. Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has significantly prolonged the survival of patients with HIV infection. Despite the growing number of HIV-positive dialysis patients with prolonged life expectancy, kidney transplantation with immunosuppression has been declined because it is considered a waste of scarce donor kidneys due to potential increases in morbidity and mortality.
